Your Boss's Resignation Date
Alexis Simendinger (in this case with Shane Harris) continues her winning streak with the latest news on when Bush administration appointees will be out the door: January 20, 2009. But in this case, it's the Bush administration that's asking its own nominees to resign, rather than having President-elect Obama ask the prior president's appointees to leave. It's a repeat of past practice, as it turns out: John Podesta, when he was chief of staff for then-President Cilnton, did the same thing in 2000, which I hadn't known before.
