Inveterate Insider

Obama's whiz pollster makes a home in Brooklyn -- and he's about as far from Mark Penn in disposition as you can get.
Obama
4ROBBY MOOK
The young campaign manager who worked miracles on the Terry McAuliffe campaign should bring the magic as long as he stays off email listserves.
Obama

Lifetime friend and trusted right-hand woman; is of talismanic importance to Hillary.
Clinton

Hillary's main press flack -- who is so good at turning the attention to Hillary, we couldn't even find a photo of him -- will invariably be by her side in the biggest campaign of her life.
Clinton

If Hillary is going to young it up, she needs Chelsea to emerge as a star. Elle magazine is already on the case.
Clinton

Bill says he's not a good campaigner anymore, and has promised be a quiet adviser -- we'll see.
