This letter is associated with the following article:
Eric Holder, Jack Quinn and the Rich pardon It's premature to criticize Obama for his establishment-soothing appointments. But it's just as premature to heap praise on him for those appointments.
  • I Hope the Rude Pundit is correct

    and OS really IS going to save us all

    but I doubt it. I'll just STFU and wait for OS to demonstarate his man-of-steel-like determination to implement Change by using a bunch of right-wing Washington retreads.

    And Glenn, parhaps it's me, but I can't parse the timeline in this sentence.

    Quinn was Legal Counsel to Al Gore -- who, during most of Holder's work on the Rich case, looked like he'd be the next President --and, thereafter, Quinn became Clinton's White House counsel.

    Hadn't Quinn previously (not thereafter) been Clinton's White House counsel?
