Per the WaPo.

Not a surprise, but disappointing still.

Can any academic to the left of Mark McClellan get confirmed at HHS?

  McClellan supports CER as far as I know. They’d find some reason to oppose him. Yes, I’m aware that he’s a Bush appointee and is (or at least was) a Republican.

  With Berwick’s track record the appointment was either politically inept or purposefully provocative. And the question should be: is any academic qualified for that position?

  McDonough has a nice wrap up on Berwick.
