13. "Democrats picked two women for senior posts"


BY LAURIE KELLMAN, Associated Press Writer 30 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - Senate Democrats picked two women for senior posts Tuesday, and their choice as majority leader, Sen. Harry Reid (news, bio, voting record), said a top priority is getting a new secretary of defense confirmed.


Reid told The Associated Press that he supports replacing Donald Rumsfeld with former
CIA Director Robert Gates by year's end, as
President Bush has urged.
