    It's the first time it's ever happened in US history, a president's nominee backing out.

    From reports in the paper, he didn't pass muster on the ethics review and he decided to pull his name due to businesses in which he is/was involved.  For what it's worth, his "qualifications" are that he is an international financier and an Army reservist.  By those standards, I am more qualified to be named Secretary of the Navy because I sailed a toy boat in the bathtub when I was little.
