A lot of names have emerged for potential Cabinet posts, including Sen. John Kerry for secretary of state. New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson and Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska also have been mentioned for that position.
Health care is another priority, and former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota is a possibility for secretary of health and human services. See who the top contenders are
Democratic sources also have said Howard Dean, a doctor who had a strong run as the Democratic National Committee chairman, is hungry for the HHS job.
John Kerry? Howard Dean? Tom Daschle?
I was under the impression that Obama was going to bring in youth and fresh faces. This list of also-rans is kind of disgusting. Also rather dissapointed that Obama's sense of "Bipartisanship" is to give a cabinet position to one of the biggest RINOs in the senate. I'm not seeing so much "change" yet.

Is it wrong that I want Gates to stay on us secretary of defense?
and don't worry about Kerry--with Teddy's bad health, he wont leave Massachusetts. I mean, he has to help the transition from Teddy to Caroline
yes. i'm calling it. Caroline Kennedy is going to be the junior senator from Mass. when Teddy steps down/dies.
Howard Dean was a doctor? "Let me check your blood pressure---BYYAAAAHHHHH"
