Performance Chief Fails To Perform

Talk about fail.

Nancy Killefer, who failed for a year and a half to pay employment taxes on household help, has withdrawn her candidacy to be the first chief performance officer for the federal government, the White House said Tuesday.

Killefer was the second major Obama administration nominee to withdraw and the third to have tax problems complicate their nomination after President Barack Obama announced their selection.

Three strikes and you're out, right? Will Daschle stay in the hunt for H&HS Secretary? How many more Obama appointee have tax issues? Should I be worried about the bed frames in the Lincoln Bedroom?
