CIA Director Rudy?
Via Kathy K, whose take I agree with 100%, comes this tidbit regarding possible replacements for George Tenet:
But there is also a groundswell of support for Giuliani, a tough manager who won widespread praise for his leadership in the wake of the 9/11 attacks.
Sorry, as much as I love Rudy, he's not the man for this job. He's a lawyer. A prosecutor. A mayor. He's not an intelligence operative. Is he a tough manager? You bet. The CIA Director, though, needs to be more than just a tough manager. He/she needs to have actual experience in intelligence work. Rudy ain't got none. I want to see Rudy back in government in some capacity, but not this one.
