Some Obama Pregame

With so much buzz about Barack Obama being on the verge of making his '08 campaign official within the next few days, the Chicago Tribune does the necessary "who advises him" piece. Many of the players have been profiled before but it's an excellent primer.

Key takeaways from the Trib piece:
-- Obama and media consultant David Axelrod talk daily
-- Chicago will be here Obama's HQ will be
-- CoS Pete Rouse will stay in the Senate, keeping tabs on Obama's official business
-- Gore '00 chair Bill Daley has been working the phones to secure support for Obama
-- Wife Michelle has NOT played a day-to-day role in her husband's work
