Can't forget another Chicago dude, the Mayor's brother, William (Bill) Daley, who is on the transition team. He's the bald head closest to you in this photo.
Transition President-elect Barack Obama has named John Podesta, Valerie Jarrett and Pete Rauss co-chairs of his transition team. He has also named William Daley, Carol Browner, Federico Pena and Janet Napolitano to his advisory panel. Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel has been offered the job of White House chief of staff.

huffpost is reporting that Valerie Jarrett will NOT be named the IL senatorial replacement .. BO has to have her in the WH. I wondered if she'd give up the WH for Springfield, IL.
