Spellings On The Way Out?
The Chronicle’s News Blog:
As the days of the Bush administration wind down, Education Secretary Margaret Spellings has watched a series of top aides leave early, including her chief of staff, her chief financial officer, and her under secretary for higher education.
Ms. Spellings, however, has repeatedly promised to stay until the end, January 20, 2009.
But will she? Close friends and former colleagues are telling The Chronicle that the secretary plans to announce her own departure shortly, and clear out her desk by early December. According to one, her plan is to submit her letter of resignation next week, just before the Thanksgiving holiday.
A Spellings spokeswoman says, “the secretary plans to stay until the end.”
