Bowles has an excellent chance of becoming our new Treasury Secretary. .replacing Tim Geithner .. .. Obama has always been serious about entitlement reform and that is why he appointed him the head of his deficit committee ... . and now Erskine may replace him when Tim Geithner leaves at the end of this term..Obama and Erskine are friends.. see? .. . .they don't agree 100 percent on everything .. but they AGREE a whole lot more than they disagree ...

Will Erskine Bowles be our next Treasury Secretary?
