Dean for HHS?

As everyone knows by now Daschle is out over his tax issues. So the question becomes, who will head HHS and who will be the Heatlh Care Czar within the White House. Daschle had insisted on having both positions, but others may be a little more flexible.

There is a movement afoot to get Howard Dean as HHS Secretary. Its all over the netroots, with an exploding facebook group, 3 recommended diaries at mydd and 1 at dailykos yesterday afternoon. So, what do you think? Good idea or not? If not Dean then who would you like to see?

I agree...Howard Dean would be perfect

...and he would help balance out the right tilt on Obama's cabinet.

The Cabinet needs a strong, liberal voice and Dean would be perfect.

Do good. Be nice. Have fun.

That voice could be Hilda Solis if the Republican obstructionists would allow an actual vote.

But why limit ourselves to one? Surely liberals deserve at least as many cabinet spots as conservatives?
