The Nation has selected several winners for their MVP in different categories.  My favorite is Elizabeth Warren.  I haven’t decided who I think I would vote for in Colorado but if you have a favorite nominate away.

Most Valuable Federal Appointee: Elizabeth Warren

The Harvard professor, a scholar of the dwindling middle class who once palled around with Paul Wellstone and appeared frequently on PBS’s NOW and Bill Moyers Journal, has taken the chairmanship of the Congressional bank bailout oversight panel and turned it into a vehicle for generating more ideas–and more good policy–than the White House or the Congressional banking committees. It was Warren who took the lead in arguing for the creation of a Consumer Financial Protection Agency. If Congress actually creates it, the only choice for its administrator is… Elizabeth Warren. Better yet, make her treasury secretary.
