Yeah, keep an eye on this. It'll be fun. The more established, entrenched Democratic Party politicians Obama puts in place the more his presidency will end up a lot like Bush's.

He's off to a fabulous start, with Rahm Emmanuel as Chief of Staff

One of the cable news shows was speculating Colin Powell as Secretary of Education. I have no idea how reliable that is, so take it with a grain of salt.

More pundit discussion: Apparently, Defense Secretary Gates is staying in his position, at least for a while. That could be interesting.

Rahm Emanuel, Hillary Clinton, and Tom Daschle, so far. It's looking like it could get comical.
