Nanny problem, my ass.

Josh Marshall has been all over this story. Allegations of mob ties, extra-marital affairs, unreported gifts when he was a NYC employee and treating a post in Iraq as a place to hang out until workmen finished renovations on a New Jersey mansion.

Lawyers at White House say they were aware of all this, but not the nanny problem.

If so, the White House needs not just a new nominee, but some new vetters as well.

Steve Gilliard has more on the affairs, where all this info is coming from and who should get questioned next.

As for the next one to be nominated?

My guess is Undersecretary for Border Security and Transportation Asa Hutchinson, not Senator Joe Lieberman.

Lieberman might get a nod for the U.N. post, but he's a little too concerned about privacy to take the Homeland Security post in the Bush Administration.
