Obama has proceeded rapidly with Cabinet choices, unlike many of his predecessors. His transition team has announced some of his expected appointments and leaked others. Overall, it appears that he is drawing heavily on Clinton era appointees to fill his Cabinet, which has displeased many of his supporters.

Obama has proceeded rapidly with Cabinet choices, unlike many of his predecessors. His transition team has announced some of his expected appointments and leaked others. Obama thus far is drawing heavily on Clinton adminsitration leaders to fill his Cabinet, along with Bush appointees Gates, Jones and Geithner. His national secutrity team (Biden, Clinton, Gates, Jones) all supported the Iraq war, although Obama made opposition to the war central to his campaign. So far no leaders of the left-wing of the Democratic party have been appointed to any major position, which has stunned antiwar and left elements.
