Prediction: If this doesn't die down by Monday, the Secretary of the Treasury will "resigna stating the rukus over him is too much of a distraction in these difficult times and that for the sake of the country he is moving aside. Obama will "reluctantly" accept the resignation, and appoint Larry Summers as acting Secretary pending his confirmation. He will avoid the problems he would have previously faced with Congress who won't have the stomach for a fight.
