SWAMP-DWELLER CANDIDATES FOR DEPUTY SECRETARY OF STATE

In no particular order: Paula Dobriansky (PNAC), Richard Haas (CFR) and Jim Jeffrey (WINEP with a board of advisors straight from Establishment HQ).

So all of them swamp-dwellers.

Not good.

With Abrams out, the field is now reopened to previously-rumored candidates such as Paula Dobrianksy, a former Bush administration official, and Richard Haas, president of the Council on Foreign Relations. Jim Jeffrey, who served as deputy national security adviser under President George W. Bush, was also under consideration.
