Gregg Withdraws From Commerce

Sen. Judd Gregg (R-NH) did the right thing today by withdrawing his name from consideration for the Commerce Secretary post.

There is a world of difference from Gregg's views and Obama's on two key issues - the economy and the census. Gregg is a fiscal conservative. Obama is a spendthrift. Gregg wants to use the census as a tool to gain data on the population. Obama wants to use the census as a political weapon to benefit the Democrats.
