PenceBlog: <b><i>Washington Post:</i> Pence weighs in on staff changes at White House</b> - U.S. Congressman Mike Pence : 6th District Of Indiana

Congressman Pence weighed in on the recent staff changes at the White House in this Washington Post article by Dan Balz and Shailagh Murray.

Here is an excerpt:

"Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.), chairman of the Republican Study Committee, a group of conservative House members, said he believes the combination of Bolten, Snow and Portman will ease tensions between Bush and his conservative base.

"'To the extent the president has tapped a fiscal hawk out of OMB [the Office of Management and Budget] to be his chief of staff, an outspoken conservative to be his press secretary and a highly respected former member of Congress to take over the budget is all very encouraging to those of us who want to see a midcourse correction,' he said."
