Snip:

The Daily News reported last week that Obama will run a turbocharged transition. The FBI has vetted scores of job candidates, but Team Obama has signaled Tuesday it wants to be careful.

"Sen. Obama has thought this through," said top adviser David Axelrod on MSNBC last night. "I think he will move as quickly as he can, but I think he's also going to be deliberative about it and make sure that he gets the right people in the right slots.

1. He's already got Emanuel in as Chief of Staff ... avoiding Clinton's mistakes

I've heard we should be hearing about some Cabinet picks
by next week ... !!!! Hopefully not TOO many R's but
I can understand if he wants to be bi-partisan.

3. he needs to rest.

he needs to go to Hawaii to mourn his grandma's death, spend some time with his family, his sister's family, and close friends. He deserves some peace, quiet, and privacy.

President Obama, please take some time for yourself and your family.
