As speculation about how long Timothy Geithner will remain as U.S. Treasury secretary simmered today, former Gov. Jon Corzine’s name began to bubble up as a possible replacement.

Corzine, considered for the nation’s top financial office after Obama was elected, has emerged on speculative short lists as someone who could take over if Geithner exited before the president’s first term expires.

When Jon Corzine was running for N.J. Governor he was on Chris Mathews show and I'll never forget Mathews calling him a "Limousine Liberal". That's exactly what he is.

Plus he's a former Goldman Sachs CEO so he'll fit right in with the criminals at the Treasury Department.

Timothy Geithner is not leaving. Given the present congress it would be impossible to appoint anyone to the position.
