Exclusive: Daley Dismisses Report That He Forced Gibbs Out

Friday, January 7, 2011


This is what your link says:

Democratic insiders are taking the temperatur­e of some top party donors about the possibilit­y of naming White House press secretary Robert Gibbs as chairman of the Democratic National Committee heading into President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign in 2012, senior officials tell POLITICO.
Under the scenario being tested, Tim Kaine, the current DNC chairman and former governor of Virginia, would be named to a top administra­tion post, perhaps in the Cabinet, the officials said.

Donors’ response has been positive, according to people who have been consulted.
Gibbs, one of the president’­s closest confidants­, already had been planning to leave the podium next year, perhaps to become a White House senior adviser.



This fits the story being reported here, that Gibbs wanted a senior advisory position but that didn't happen.  What's significan­t in today's story is that Gibbs isn't leaving for any position within the Democratic Party or the Obama administra­tion (as reported in the Washington Examiner and Politico), but for parts unknown.  

Gibbs is far from my favorite person (he's certainly no lefty, but then again neither is Daley), but it's hard to figure why this article aggravates you so.
