The US Treasurer leaves us

John Snow
Treasury Czar John W. Snow decided to step down. He plans to stay in the job no later than July 3, while a replacement is sought. He has presided during a period of strong economic growth but at times seemed out of sync with the White House.

Possible candidates to succeed Snow include former commerce secretary Evans, a longtime Bush friend; Commerce Secretary Gutierrez; Ambassador Mulford, a former treasury undersecretary who now represents the US in India; and the president's former chief economic adviser Friedman, who is also a former Goldman Sachs chief executive. Start in the race. Hey guys, you have fun!
