HHS' Thompson resigns; McClellan may be successor

HHS Secretary Tommy Thompson submitted his resignation to President Bush and is expected to formally announce his departure at a news conference later today. His likely successors include CMS Administrator Mark McClellan, a physician who previously led the Food and Drug Administration, and HHS Deputy Secretary Claude Allen. Thompson, 63, a former four-term Wisconsin governor with more than three decades of public service, is the eighth Bush cabinet member to resign from the 15-member cabinet since the president won re-election. Thompson ran the giant HHS bureaucracy for nearly four years, overseeing 60,000 employees and an annual budget of more than $500 billion. -- by Michael Romano
