Daschle back in the game? Probably not.
Tommy D’s being floated around again to replace Rahm Emanuel as Obama’s Chief of Staff;
Graybeards: The name of Tom Daschle has been floated, largely because he still carries enormous respect and clout inside Washington. And don’t forget that Daschle still has deep ties to Obama, dating back to the days when he was the first powerful national Democrat to really push Obama to run for president in the first place.
But many top Democrats are privately shooting down the prospect of Daschle becoming chief of staff, especially given the fact that his nomination to be secretary of health and human services crashed and burned over tax issues that would have made Senate confirmation bumpy if not impossible.
I think Valerie Jarrett will get the spot. Often described as one of Obama’s ‘best friends’.
Obama needs to make good on his 2007 promise
