And before them, the hot name was Paul Wolfowitz.

That's some mighty fine crack they're smoking at the World Bank.

After six or more years of near-constant involvement with the issue of odious debt, Bono is an excellent choice. He's easy to hate, but he actually knows more about the issue than you, me, or most macroeconomists. Unfortunately, he's not really in the running at all - he's just the LA Times tongue-in-cheek pick. The World Bank will never be run by anyone who seeks debt forgiveness.
