REPUBLICAN TO REPLACE JUDD GREGG IN THE SENATE – AP's Philip Elliott: 'President Barack Obama is expected to pick a Republican senator, Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, as his commerce secretary soon. But officials expect the state's Democratic governor, John Lynch, to fill Gregg's Senate seat with another Republican. 'In other words, whoever is appointed to replace him would caucus with Senate Republicans, so I think it would have no impact on the balance of power in the Senate,' Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Senate's minority leader, told 'Face the Nation' on CBS.'
