Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner may not have as much support from the Obama administration as he does from the New York banking industry.

He got dinged for failing to pay more than $34,000 in income taxes from 2001-04. Geithner has had a tough go convincing Democratic and Republican lawmakers on the revised bailout plans for the banks. Geithner also reportedly has had run-ins with Obama's top advisor David Axelrod on getting tougher with the banks.

If the U.S. economy doesn't respond quickly to the new plan, Geithner could be signaled as the one to blame.

Prediction: Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner resigns by Dec. 1, 2009.
