Congressman Rahm Emanuel has agreed to be Barack Obama's White House chief of staff, according to a Democratic aide.
QUOTE After leaving the Clinton White House, Emanuel was an investment banker on Wall Street and later was elected to the House of Representatives from a heavily Democratic Chicago district. He quickly rose to become the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House.
It is Emanuel's combination of experiences -- plus his strong personal relationship with Obama -- that would make him a strong chief of staff, said CNN political analyst Paul Begala, a fellow Clinton veteran. "He has spent more time in the White House than President-elect Obama has. That matters a lot. It is a special place with its own rhythms," Begala said.

Not only is he building an experienced team, he's choosing people that he trusts. Good move.

I think he's building a good team. Which helps even more, since he has a lot on his plate stepping into office.
