Obama waiting for midterm to name attorney general
By NEDRA PICKLER

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama does not plan to announce his choice for attorney general before the November elections, shielding the nomination from the midterm election politics while setting up a potential year-end showdown with the lame duck Senate.
Senate Democrats have asked Obama to wait so controversy doesn't arise over whether they will support a specific nominee, and the delay gives Obama more time to consider his options.
Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley, the leading Republican on the Judiciary Committee that will hold hearings on the nominee, said Democrats are trying to "avoid making clear to the voters of their states where they stand on what could be a controversial choice for attorney general."
"This timing shows, once again, that the president and Democrat Senate leaders are willing to play politics with important policy decisions," Grassley said.

The American people have suffered for the last six years with an administration puppet, we surely don't need another. The IRS targeting scandal, Benghazi scandal, Fast & Furious, AP & Fox reporter spying scandal, NSA scandal and no one I know of has been fired. To make matters worse.....The Obama administration promoted the IRS official in charge of the tax exempt office that targeted conservative groups to head the IRS’ ObamaCare office. (http://www.ijreview.com/2014/01/104778-obama-presidencys-100-arrogant-moments-2013/) The arrogance of the Democrats in charge of this country right now is astounding.
"The Obama administration promoted Susan Rice from UN Secretary to National Security Adviser, even though she told a fairy tale to the American people about Benghazi being caused by a YouTube video."
Obama waiting for midterm to name attorney general!!!
Given the egregious arrogance of the Democrats, don't give them the chance to stack the deck in their favor yet again. Vote out as many Democrats from Government as we can Nov 4th. They obviously believe they are above the law and act like it constantly. We need to show them that if they refuse to police themselves, we the voters will do it for them.
