Here is video of Sen. Judd Gregg's Press Conference today announcing his withdrawal as President Obama's nominee to be Secretary of Commerce. Gregg cited differences with Obama over moving oversight of the coming U.S. Census from the Commerce Department to the White House, and the Stimulus Package as factors in his decision.
Gregg has done the right thing. His withdrawal shows that Obama's agenda is indeed more radical than many people realize. Gregg apparently realized the last couple of days that he could not in good conscience go forward with the nomination.

Gregg shoulda known.
Hey Austin,
Yes, he should have known. But I'm glad he made the decision to withdraw.
