The man Sen. Barack Obama picked to head up the vice presidential search team has resigned already. Jim Johnson, who has been implicated in a housing loan scandal, was one of three people Obama named to his vice presidential search team.
Caroline Kennedy appears to be the only one who doesn't have a checkered past. The other person on the search committee, Eric Holder, was a member of the Clinton administration who helped arrange the pardon for convicted financier Marc Rich, a big-time contributor to the Clintons.
The resignation of Johnson points to serious problems with the inexperienced Obama. If he can't be trusted to pick people to search for a vice president, how can he be trusted to fill his cabinet or make Supreme Court nominations?
