Whitman's Whining

By jhadler - The Commons blog

A new book by former Bush EPA administrator Christine Todd Whitman will complain how her tenure was frustrated by Karl Rove and "antiregulatory lobbyists and extreme antigovernment ideologues" in the Bush Administration. Apparently Whitman assumed that because Bush wanted a positive environmental record, her job was to continue the policies of her predecessor. How wrong she was. I have further thoughts on Whitman's tenure as EPA Administrator here and here. commonsblog.org

Titled It's My Party Too: The Battle for the Heart of the GOP and the Future of America, Whitman's book is billed as an effort to move the Republican Party to the left. Yet, interestingly enough, Whitman's book tour will only take her to blue states, according to this report. This certainly makes it look like Whitman is more interested in selling book s-- and becoming a darling of "blue" America -- than in convincing any Republicans to adopt her approach.
