Obama Puts Longtime Aides At White House

 Transition To A New Government

CHICAGO (AP) ― President-elect Barack Obama is putting some longtime aides in senior posts at his White House.

Obama named four new members of his West Wing staff Wednesday. That include a senior adviser job for his chief campaign strategist, David Axelrod.

He also announced Greg Craig as White House counsel. Craig was President Bill Clinton's lawyer during his impeachment.

Chris Lu will be Cabinet secretary, the White House liaison to the Cabinet and government agencies. And Lisa Brown, a lawyer who served as former Vice President Al Gore's counsel, will be staff secretary.
