Ladies Prevail
The White House has expressed its preference for Rep Debbie Wasserman Schutz (D-FL) to run for chairman of the Democratic National Committee at its next annual meeting.
Donna Brazile has been appointed interim chair until the DNC election.
Former Gov Ted Strickland of Ohio from 2007-11 was one of the finalists for the role.
Strickland was preferred by more conservative Democrats.
Some were concerned about having a national DNC spokesperson who is a feminist and supports women's rights.
In fact, some were concerned that she is a woman, Jewish and from Florida as well.
Many of us are delighted.
Rep Wasserman Schultz is one of the Party's most effective media advocates and she is an exceptional fundraiser.
She will continue in the House of Representatives and an administrator will be appointed to handle day-to-day activites of the Party while she concentrates on her role as spokesperson and fundraiser.
She will succeed Tim Kaine who will run for Senator of Virginia.
