Rumpole and the DBR finally broke what people have been talking about for weeks now -- that the White House is actively vetting Kathy Williams for the open judge seat and Willy Ferrer for U.S. Attorney.
Congrats to these two very well-deserving candidates. Both are going to be absolutely great....
As an aside, I held off on posting this news for the past couple of weeks because the vetting process is very sensitive and I didn't want anything to slow the process for Kathy or Willy. But now, it's out there, so I am posting it...
Hopefully the official nomination will happen by the end of the year.

Hopefully WF will bring significant change to the USAO.
Right.
Sure. Blame me for the security lapse. I have no guilt here if she doesn't get it.
A similar rumor of Williams and Ferrer being vetted has been floating at the USAO along with Nieland for Marshal. Rumoredly, announcements are stalled due to a holdup involving the middle district and a battle of words with Shorstein and a former colleague. Probably after the New Year.
