1. Because she is a centrist who is looking for compromise
I like hillary a lot but the woman is a centrist and leans right on a number of issues. Her book is very clear on that.

2. She singlehandedly held up his nomination
in the beginning. Maybe some concessions/promises were made by him to look into the air-quality problems in N.Y. post 9/11? Just a guess.

3. Because it doesn't really matter
Id doesn't matter who the EPA director is. Enviornmental policy is made in the White House. There was a moderate in that position before, but it was not reflected in the EPA's policy. It's not like it is a lifetime judicial appointment.

5. Because she realized that the repubs have the votes
to stop a filibuster.
