"White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan [3] said Wednesday he is stepping down, while President Bush [4]'s top presidential adviser Karl Rove [5] is giving up his policy portfolio," reports FOX News and Associated Press. McClellan will leave the White House in two to three weeks. One possible replacement for him is FOX News [6] radio host Tony Snow [7], who previously wrote speeches for President George H. W. Bush [8]. Other people who have "been approached about the position" include former Pentagon spokesperson Victoria Clarke [9] and former Coalition Provisional Authority [10] spokesperson in Iraq Dan Senor [11]. Rove's portfolio change has been called a "demotion [12]." A "senior administration official" said that "Rove is giving up oversight of policy development to focus more on politics with the approach of the fall midterm elections."
