The president's new right-hand man is a bookish, private man, but he's also an outspoken liberal who fits Obama's new populist tone.

3. He's no moderate. When Obama named Bill Daley to succeed Rahm Emanuel, he was seen as a move to shore up the president's support among business leaders and the private sector. Daley, a former JPMorgan representative, was one of them. Lew's appointment fits with the leftward, populist tone that Obama has adopted as he enter the campaign season. The new chief of staff is a staunch liberal: he started his political career canvassing for anti-war hero Eugene McCarthy in 1968 (he was 12); his adviser at Carleton College was Paul Wellstone, later an iconic liberal senator; and one of his first jobs in Washington was working for Democratic lion and former Speaker of the House Tip O'Neill. But despite his acute partisan sensibility, he has long had a reputation for earning the trust of and working well with Republicans.
