No wonder you are so high on this lady.

I think Americans are really wanting for a change. Therefore, they have supported the best one presidential candidate. What they think is the ability of the possible to be country leader. Have you heard about Barack Obama’s “Blueprint for Change?” I think an employee of the federal government will be wondering how the 44th President’s policies may affect them. According to Lois Romano and Eric Pianin of the Washington Post, there are “dozens” of proposals amid Obama’s Blueprint that could change the career path of scores of workers from among America’s 1.8 million federal employees. He plans to look at everything line by line to discover and cut waste. “I am not a Democrat who believes that we can or should defend every government program just because it’s there,” says the President Elect. While that may sound scary for some and send others running for personal loans, keep in mind that Obama does have a very broad domestic agenda that could move skilled employees from threatened divisions into new programs formed because of his idealist civic policies. Plus, Obama plans to encourage young public servants who share his sense of idealism to get involved in restoring faith in the American dream through service. Click to read more on Personal Loans

Steve -- thanks for the posting on Karen. I too am a fan of hers and I've been concerned that her name has not come up in all the talk of the Obama Administration. It would be a shame if she doesn't continue in some capacity in the White House.

Hmmmm, nice.

Beauty, brains & heart all in one.

Best of luck to her.

Love the REM. And excellent description of this lady.

I am pleased you are calling attention to Ms. Kornbluh and I agree with all that you have said. I think the heading is quite disrespectful, however. We probably got too used to the idea of someone being someone else's brain when the phrase was used in the contest of President Bush, as he was commonly thought not to be the sharpest knife in the drawer. But Pres.-elect Obama is the smartest person involved in his campaign and presidency and it is hoped that the others involved in his campaign, including Ms. Kornbluh, would be learning from the master and carrying out his ideas and not the other way around. Nobody elected anybody in the executive branch except the President and the VP, and only them. The rest are just the hired help.
