If Obama wins re-election, two of his top cabinet members won't seek reappointment.

10. The general consensus here is what I was looking for!

Thanks to all for your input. I really want Obama to win re-election and perhaps I was just a bit fearful the announcements that Hillary and Tim were leaving might influence the outcome. Reading your posts has reassured me that I have nothing to worry about.
After all, the team will be intact right up until November; and, Obama will have been re-elected by then.

Researching Geithner, I see that he leans more towards the Republican side. He is probably under pressure from his Republican cohorts to resign rather than help Obama fix the economy. Among his reasons for leaving might include Obama's abject disregard for Geithner's right wing advice.

But who would be a suitable replacement? Hopefully, this time it will be a Democrat!

I won't get into my hunch concerning Hillary wanting to retire. I would, but I see that already the word "troll" is forming in slow motion on the lips of a few respondents here. I'll back off to keep the faith and continue positive dialogue with those who are so inclined! OBAMA 2012!!!!!
