Barbara Boxer wants Mary Nichols at the EPA 1

Bloomberg has a piece up about possible Obama EPA picks. The reporter seems to think that Kathleen McGinty is the front-runner. But Barbara Boxer is thinking what I'm thinking:

"Mary Nichols would be a great choice," Senator Barbara Boxer, a California Democrat, said in an interview today. "If I was asked by the Obama administration, I'd say she'd be at the top of my list."

    I don't know NicholsBut know Katie, and she is hands down, one of the most impressive public officials I have ever spent time with.  Driven by all the right policy motivations, politically astute and smart as all get out.   In a decision between Katie and anyone else to head the EPA, she's my pick.
