As a deputy AG in the Clinton administration, Holder signed off on the Mark Rich pardon at Bill Clinton's request. He has some experience as a yes man and he is an African-American, so Holder is obviously qualified to serve in the Obama cabinet.

I am fine with this selection, btw. All these jokers have some questionable moments, like the Rich pardon; I am willing to give him a chance and he is just as qualified on paper as anyone else. I do not see him as a far left political hack.
