Is Obama Wooing McCain? more»»
Christopher Orr speculates that by making nice with Sen. Joe Lieberman, President-elect Obama gives "a kind of peace offering to John McCain, a
sign that there are no hard feelings and that Obama is serious about
working with the 'other' side... Assuming he's on the list of Republicans with
at least occasionally 'gettable' votes on Obama's priorities (along
with Snowe, Collins, etc.) what better way to get him... than to use his pal Joe as a
goodwill ambassador?"
Another favor: Putting Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano in his cabinet. "McCain said this week that he intends to run
for reelection in 2010, and by far the largest obvious obstacle for him
was Napolitano, whose term-limited tenure as governor is up the same
year, whom many had speculated might challenge McCain for his seat, and
who even led him in one (very) early poll."

Pritzker Nomination in Doubt more»»
Despite last night's report that Penny Pritzker was President-elect Obama's choice to become Commerce secretary, the Washington Post reports she "has run into business obstacles that will likely
prevent her" from taking the post.
Said one Obama adviser: "The issue is whether she ultimately wants to do this, and it may be -- and probably will be -- possible that for business reasons, she
probably can't do it."
Update: Politico reports Pritzker turned down the offer.
