Obama announces key communications appointments
http://thepoliticalcarnival.blogspot.com/2008/11/obama-annou...We already knew about Gibbs, but the other ones are worth noting. Didn't the character that Josh date for a while on West Wing also run EMILY's List? (CNN) – President-elect Barack Obama's transition team on Saturday announced several key appointments to his communications team. Ellen Moran, the executive director of EMILY's List, will serve as Obama's communications director. Moran worked for the AFL-CIO, coordinating "Wal-mart corporate accountability activities," before returning to EMILY's — an organization dedicated to helping Democratic women get elected to office. Robert Gibbs, an Obama campaign spokesman who also has acted as spokesman for the transition, will become Obama's press secretary — one of the most highly visible roles in the administration. Gibbs, an Auburn, Alabama, native who has worked for Sen. Fritz Hollings, the Democratic Senatorial Committee and Sen. John Kerry's presidential campaign, was communications director, then a senior strategist, for the Obama campaign. Dan Pfeiffer, current communications director with the transition team, will be Obama's deputy communications director. He began work with the Obama campaign in January 2007 as traveling press secretary before returning to Chicago to work as communications director. PS- Gibbs is cuter than Alison Janney.
