Tim Geithner was NOT indispensible

That’s Frank Rich’s bottom-line take on Team Obama’s Cabinet nominations clusterfuck, which he illustrates with a de Gaulle quote:
“The cemeteries of the world are full of indispensable men.”

He notes one of Geithner’s biggest problems is being in Larry Summers’ pocket. From there, he moves to Tom Daschle and notes how the two-party duopoly, especially inside the D.C. Village, just didn’t get it.

Read the whole thing; even better than the normal Rich.
