In case you haven’t seen this….

“One further note on Joe Szabo. He also is said to be interested in the Amtrak presidency, creating yet another Capitol Hill rumor that Durbin, with support from Obama, would pressure the mostly Obama-loyal Amtrak board of directors to buy out Amtrak President Joe Boardman's contract (extended in May 2013 to year-end 2015) and insert Szabo. The Amtrak presidency, unlike an STB nomination, does not require Senate confirmation.”
