Reports: Corzine Being Eyed As Possible Replacement For Geithner

NEW YORK (CBS 2) -- Former New Jersey governor Jon Corzine may be looking at a new job in Washington.

He's reportedly being eyed as a possible replacement for Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner.

That's if Geithner leaves before the end of President Obama's first term.

Corzine is former chairman of Goldman-Sachs and now works at the investment firm MF Global.

A spokesman for Corzine dismissed the talk of replacing Geithner, calling it "idle speculation."
