Ron Kirk, US Trade Representative.

I would note that I’ve had some experience with the guy. I lived in Arlington while this guy was mayor of Dallas, and he is an unbelievably big corporate whore….Which, given the role of trade rep, may make him remarkably qualified for the post.

There is an open seat on the Federal Reserve, and Daniel Tarullo will be named for it.

Two interesting points here, he is not an economist, and he is a part of the Center for American Progress, which means that he has good liberal credentials.

Representative Hilda Solis (D-CA), Secretary of Labor.

She is probably one of the 10 most pro-labor members of Congress.
