[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the extent that Biden is considering and interviewing people he does not know already, it is probably very difficult for these candidates to connect during a Zoom interview.  Biden seems to be defaulting to people who give him a comfort level.  At least this is a group of mostly experienced and diverse candidates.

As far as financial conflicts, isn't it better to know who cabinet officials may be trying to please before they are approved as opposed to afterwards?   We will not need to wait until after these folks leave government.

Biden is also 78 years old and has not had a full time job in almost 4 years.  He did not really need to campaign much.  It is unlikely he is going to be putting in the same number of hours as Obama, or even come close to the time Trump spends doing whatever he does all day.  So, it helps to have a team that can hit the ground running and make things easier on the president.

Some of these pucks become headscratchers then.  Fudge is not experienced with HUD.  Rice is not an expert on domestic policy.  Vilsack does have the experience of course, but his civil rights failures in the past make him out of sync with Biden's civil rights agenda.  [/quote]

This is just wagon circling/patronage give-aways for a clique of insiders.

Vilsack has been a disaster for most of Ag (not the mammoths, tho).

This is likely to be a bigger mess than most here imagine possible.[/quote]
