Yea, I would but more of because I'm a Republican (Hack). I like him as a senator but there's more qualified people for the post.

Since their number one job is to oversee the budget , I would say someone who wants to have a balanced budget in 4 years is best fit for the job

I'd honestly prefer Tom Donahue if he were younger but since he's not, I'd have go with Arthur Brooks as my #1 choice for Treasury.

Yes, despite a lack of qualifications besides being on the Small Business Committee and the HELP Committee. Paul Ryan, Jim Nussle, Mike Enzi, Judd Gregg, and Scott Garrett are all more qualified for that and have essentially the same views. Sean Duffy, John Kasich, and Rob Portman have good views for you, too, economically, and they are all three certainly qualified.

I'd nominate him as Secretary of Occasionally being Right on Foreign Policy - other than that, Randy boy would be crap out of luck, and he's one of the good ones.

I don't think Donahue would be too old to serve; he's younger than Wilbur Ross, the incoming Commerce Secretary.

Huh, good point. Didn't know Ross was that old.
