Well, that's three jobs done.
Rob Dubow, finance director. Chuck Ramsey, police commissioner. And as of a few minutes ago, Clarence Armbrister, chief of staff.
But there are still hundreds of jobs for Michael Nutter to fill, and he has received close to 3,000 resumes to help him choose.
Some of the work, though, will be done by Armbrister, Nutter said in an interview after announcing his new top aide at today's press conference.
Will he be an energetic, everywhere-man like Rendell's David L. Cohen? Or a behind-the-scenes master like Street's Joyce Wilkerson?
Nutter's response: "I expect that when public servants get a call from the chief of staff, they should respond like they're getting a call from me," Nutter said.
