Yes, I know this is by the reigning Prince of Darkness, but I thought it might mean something.

SUPER-LOBBYIST Ed Gillespie has been given his own office in the West Wing of the White House to manage President Bush’s Supreme Court confirmation battle. That raised speculation Gillespie could be chief of staff for the end of the Bush presidency.

Republican lobbyists Ken Duberstein and Tom Korologos were given judicial confirmation chores in years past without moving permanently into the West Wing. Insiders believe Gillespie, a protege of Bush political adviser Karl Rove, is being groomed to replace Andrew Card as chief of staff for Bush’s last two years as president.

Less than a decade ago, Gillespie was a mere aide to then House Majority Leader Dick Armey. He left to become a lobbyist and has been called on by Rove for political tasks: running Elizabeth Dole’s 2002 campaign for the U.S. Senate from North Carolina, Republican National Committee chairman in 2003-2004 and now the judicial confirmation assignment.
