My candidate for the most under-reported story of the week is the promotion of Karl Rove to Deputy Chief of Staff at the White House.
John Dilulio, George W. Bush's first choice as director of the White House's "faith-based" operation, quit the post after less than a year, telling a reporter he found almost no substantive policy discussions. It was all politics, he said, perpetrated by the "Mayberry Machiavellis."
That was four years ago.
Now political honcho Rove - Dilulio sure was wrong about the Mayberry part - will have more power over policy.
Not much of a story, is it?
