Obama's Inner Circle

Submitted by ulla, Feb 21, 2008 16:37

When some time back I read that Gregory Craig had given his support to Obama I felt elated all day.

This is the same Gregory Craig who was brought in to make sense of the Bill-Monica-Paula-etc-etc-etc mess when it was aknowledged that all conserned where chased in to a corner (with a dunce hat ).

Gregory Craig is a brilliant mind and like any other brilliant mind he can take a situation down to it's lowest denominator and put it back together in an imaginative, new way.

For those of you who keep nagging and nagging about "is this change" I like to say : Not all people in Clinton administration were Clintons or Clintonites
