Craig Picked as White House Counsel
Gregory Craig, “a well-known Washington lawyer who quarterbacked President Bill Clinton’s impeachment defense, has been chosen White House counsel by President-elect Obama,” according to Politico.
“The choice gives the president-elect both experience and loyalty. During the primaries, Craig was an early Clinton alumni defector to Obama…”
“Craig was an Obama foreign policy adviser during the campaign. At the start of the Clinton administration, he had been the State Department’s Director of Policy Planning, the head of State’s in-house think tank. He also was senior adviser on defense, foreign policy and national security to Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA).”
