My first (and only) reaction so far is that Obama still thinks he can negotiate with Cantor and that crowd.

Of course we both know that's not going to happen... til after 2012

.

I actually have no opinion on Jacob Lew... never even heard of him before this appointment.
But apparently the ChiefofStaff is a close, personal working arrangement,
so as far as I'm concerned Obama, and any President, can have whoever he wants.
The "whoever" serves "at the pleasure of" so it's not like a judge, etc.
