I'd put money on Pompeo and Haspel getting confirmed, but @emptywheel is right that not enough attention is being paid to confirmation. See, for example:https://usa.spectator.co.uk/2018/03/rand-paul-denounces-trumps-crazy-neocons/ …
I just want a clear understanding of 1) who would get nod if Pompeo doesn't get confirmed (if Haley, is she more palatable to Paul, Shaheen, and Kaine?) 2) what happens to Haspel if Pompeo doesn't get confirmed. I think Haspel absolutely will get confirmed if it goes thru.

I bet Haley is too smart to take secretary of state position. It's seems to be more of a career-breaker than career-maker.
