Podcast: Obama SBA Pick Has Much To Prove
Posted on | January 5, 2009 | Comments Off
Happy New Year! We’re back with our regular podcast and, if you held a gun to my head and forced me to choose a theme for this week, I’d have to say “looking ahead” would cover things nicely.
It’s weird what happens around this time in the political season. We talk almost obsessively about the incoming Congress and the incoming Administration but, since they’re all coming in for the first time, none of us really knows what we’re talking about.
I suppose this is what pundits do best: speculate.
That said, there are some more-than-relevant personnel changes we’ll see in the 111th Congress, and that doesn’t include the burning question of whether Norm Coleman will be back on the Small Business Committee or whether he will find himself out of a job when all the counting and litigious jockeying is done.
