Somebody tough in the White House who can keep a tight ship, but also knows
policy is what Obama needs. Barack is not an ideologue, nor is he a whip cracker.
Emanuel
is.
Emanuel, a knowledgeable source tells ABC News, has not yet given his answer.
The sharp-tongued, sharp-elbowed, keenly intelligent veteran of the Clinton
White House is said to have ambitions to some day be Speaker of the House.
But he also has a keen sense of "duty."Today on "Good Morning America" ABC’s George Stephanopoulos reported
Obama likes the fact that Emanuel "knows policy, knows politics, knows
Capitol Hill" and has told associates that Emanuel would "have his
back."
Obama’s going to need him. I hope he takes the job.
