First, it should be noted that historically, cabinet members have come and gone. Some leave due to poor health or retirement, others are replaced because the president feels another person might do a better job. This administration is no exception. By some counts, at least seven members have either retired, resigned, or been replaced. These include Robert Gates, secretary of defense (retired-- replaced by Leon Panetta); John Bryson, secretary of commerce (resigned after an automobile accident; replaced by Acting Director Rebecca Blank; and Rahm Emmanuel, chief of staff (resigned to return to Chicago and run for Mayor; replaced by Jack Lew).
It is actually very common for cabinet members to resign after one term. Being a cabinet secretary is a very demanding and time-consuming job, and many people who do it are only willing to commit to one four-year term, often preferring to go back to their home district and be with their family for a while. President Bush and President Clinton both had to replace cabinet members in their second term, so it is not surprising that President Obama will have to do so as well.
