As speculations abound over who President-elect Barack Obama will name to key cabinet positions we look at some of the central figures advising Obama, many of whom are leading candidates for posts in the next administration. We speak with Jeremy Scahill, author of the new piece "This Is Change? 20 Hawks, Clintonites and Neocons to Watch for in Obama's White House," and David Corn, author of "The Agents of Change on Obama's Transition Team."

The Obama "Dream Team": Rubin-clones And Other Fakers
By Mike Whitney

Does Paulson think he can "turn off" the public's pessimism like a light switch? Does Bernanke think he can get people to spend themselves further into debt by lowering interest rates? It can't be done. And the Obama camp is going to run into the same brick wall. The nation's confidence has been shaken and people are developing a bunker mentality.

If he weren't filling his cabinet with people from the Clinton-era administration who helped get us into this mess, I might have a little more confidence in President-elect Obama. But his "change" agenda is turning into a whole lot of "more of the same."

I did notice he has added some republican people or kept them in the position they already held. Yeah it looks like it is going to be four more years of the same to me too.

Pres. Barack Obama's Next Move

I think every one will be disappointed by yet another empty political promise. I hope he does a have real game plan though for the economy.

Like I have stated before if he does not do anything the first couple years then the democrats will lose their majority in both houses because the change that was promised has not come about. It is over two years now and we are still waiting.

Barack Obama Picks Staffer of Pro-Abortion Group as Communication Director

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Barack Obama told voters during the presidential election that he wanted to work with both sides of the abortion debate to reduce the number of abortions. Yet, over the weekend, he picked a top staffer for one of the biggest pro-abortion groups to become his communications director. The selection of Ellen Moran, the executive director of Emily's List, to become the White House communications director makes it clear that the only agenda Obama plans to communicate as president is more abortions. Moran hails from Emily's List, a group whose sole mission is to regularly spend tens of millions of dollars on promoting pro-abortion candidates for office. Emily's List has a policy that it will only support Democratic women who, like Obama, are in favor of taxpayer funding of abortions and oppose any limits to reduce abortions like a ban on the partial-birth abortion procedure. The selection of someone from Emily's List comes as somewhat of a surprise given the fact that the group worked overtime for Hillary Clinton during the Democratic presidential primary and condemned fellow abortion advocates NARAL when the latter group came out in support of Obama before the primary had concluded.
