"No Clear End in Sight?"

The Washington Post is reporting that Wolfowitz is holding out for “exoneration” before leaving the Bank, but that “the board remained adamant it will not clear Wolfowitz, following the release of a bank report earlier this week that found he broke ethics rules…” The article also states that leading the negotiations on the Board’s side are the representative from Britain, Germany, and Canada.

President Bush has chimed in with his support for Wolfowitz, but does appear to be conceding defeat.

Speculation is running rampant as to who Wolfowitz’ successor will be.

And some stories over the past few days have looked on whether it is time for reform of the presidential selection process.
