Best Headline Ever: "Moran to run Obama press shop"

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

But it's only funny to DUers, of course... I thought Obama had tapped our old friend here, noted for his communications skills:

Moran to run press shop

The Obama transition just announced part of the White House press office, confirming that Robert Gibbs will take the high-profile job of press secretary and making Dan Pfeiffer, the largely behind-the-scenes communications director and manager of the campaign press shop, deputy White House communications director.

Anita Dunn, another key figure in the campaign, isn't going to the White House, but the administration will be bringing in an outsider in the senior job of communications director: Emily's List executive director Ellen Moran.

Ellen Moran, executive director of EMILY’s List, was named White House communications director by President-elect Obama on Saturday.

Moran, a well-known grassroots organizer, has also managed statewide Democratic campaigns and managed the Wal-Mart corporate accountability campaign for the AFL-CIO.

EMILY's List, one of the most important Democratic constituency groups, says it is "dedicated to building a progressive America by electing Democratic pro-choice women to office."
