?It happened,? an aide to a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee told HuffPost on Monday.
The White House later confirmed the news. ?Mr. Petersen has withdrawn his nomination and the President has accepted,? a White House official told HuffPost.
In his letter to the president, Petersen said he?s withdrawing because he doesn?t want to be ?a distraction? to the administration.
?I had hoped that my nearly two decades of public service might carry more weight than my two worst minutes on television,? he said. ?However, I am no stranger to political realities, and I do not wish to be a continued distraction from the important work of your Administration and the Senate.?
