Powell Resigns
Secretary of State Colin Powell has tendered his resignation. It isn't a surprising development yet it is definitely noteworthy. Secretary Powell's replacement has, of course, not been named. The armchair presidents will offer Condoleezza Rice, John Danforth and others as his likely replacements.
The other common discussion point will be the divide between State and Defense within the Administration.
Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham has also resigned.
The White House is expected to release information concerning cabinet positions later today.
UPDATE: The first AP report concerning Secretary Powell is now up.
UPDATE: Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman and Education Secretary Rod Paige have also resigned. The White House press briefing is minutes away.
