Rumsfeld to Step Down?

According to FOX News, citing an AP bulletin, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld is to step down.

This is not necessarily surprising because all I've heard is that pressure would be on Rumsfeld to resign, given that Bush said he would not remove him. If yesterday's election was a referendum on Iraq, as many Dems have claimed, then changes need to be made, and this looks like the first of many.

Update: Rumsfeld is to be replaced by ex-CIA director Robert Gates.

Update II: Predictably, some moron has hijacked Wikipedia's Gates page.

Update III: Wikipedia seems to have temporarily resolved the problem. More on Gates here.
