And The Nominees Are...

We now know who 9 of the 12 "deficit busters" will be, and they are a cross section of Establishment Washington with barely a nod to the Tea Party.

Still to come are the three wild-bearded bomb throwing Anarchists to be named by Nancy Pelosi. We can hardly wait. After all she has a plethora of wackadoodles to choose from: Barney Frank, Charlie Rangel (who is adept at reducing his own financial obligations), John Conyers, Henry Waxman, Maxine Waters, Alcee Hastings, Edolphus Towns, Dennis Kucinich and, of course, Sheila Jackson Lee.

Weiner and Wu, normally on the list, are no longer eligible.


UPDATE: Oh, well, Pelosi decided to follow suit and name three very Establishment nominees: Reps. James Clyburn, Xavier Becerra and Chris Van Hollen. In keeping with the Democrat fixation with quotas, that's one African-American, one Latino and one white.
