You Heard It Here First

Barack Obama will--in an effort to pivot a la Bill Clinton--name a new "Adviser to the President" who will be a name known and loved in some quarters of the Republican Party/Conservative circles. I don't yet know who this will be--but I do think it is coming.....

Nah, Barack's too much of an idealogue - Clinton was smarter in that regard. He'll seek to 'reconnect' by striking a more populist chord, and will go after the banksters.

David Gergen?

My guess? David Brooks.

I think David Brooks stopped being loved in conservative circles some time ago.

I kinda still like him, every now and then....

Pat Buchanan?

Gergen would most definitely do it for me.

Gergen's reference in the MA Senate debate to the "Kennedy" seat (to which Brown had his famous "it's the people's seat retort") is referred to in Republican circles as the only time Gergen's ever done anything useful for a Republican....

That question was like a hanging slider to the Mick in 1961. In his wildest dreams Brown couldn't have asked for a better question.
That exchange may go down in history as the day the Kennedy dynasty finally and absolutely died.
