Larry Dreiling, an editor at the High Plains Journal in Kansas, has been working the phones and passes along two possible names for ag secretary:
Former House ranking member on ag Charlie Stenholm of Texas. This guy....
knows policy up and down, though he's a blue dog. He got jerked out of
office by Tom DeLay's gerrymandering tactics. Rs and Ds alike are still

Former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack. He worked for Hillary, but this could be
a good choice since, well, it's Iowa.
