The Obama campaign just released a roster of newly hired staff... And this caught my attention:
Chief of Staff to the Vice Presidential Nominee: Patti Solis Doyle
Former Clinton campaign manager hired to basically run the eventual VP nominee's office/campaign/life? Hmmm. I think the evening pundit shows just found their big topic for tonight.
Meanwhile, this made me smile:
Obama has also hired a major Minnesota player to be his state director: Jeff Blodgett, the former campaign manager of Senator Paul Wellstone.
UPDATE: Sam Stein reports that the hiring of Solis-Doyle is a signal that Senator Clinton is definitely NOT going to be the VP nominee. An insider says it's a huge "fuck you" to Senator Clinton.
