Tim Geithner: Last Man Standing

With the departure of Austan Goolsbee, chairman of Obama's Council of Economic Advisers, Tim Geithner is left as "the last man standing."

Geithner with his Wall Street viewpoint, should never have been selected as an adviser to the president in the first place. And he should have accompanied Larry Summers out the door.
