ARCHIVES

In his first post-election press conference, President-elect Obama previewed how he'll go about making his high-level appointments:

"When we have an announcement about Cabinet appointments, we will make them. There is no doubt that people want to know who's going to make up our team, and I want to move with all deliberate haste, but I want to emphasize deliberate as well as haste. I'm proud of the decision I made for Vice President because we did it right. I'm proud of the decision I made for chief of staff because we thought it through."
