It Depends

Naming Mike Leavitt the head of Mitt Romney's transition team may be a big deal, or it may not be.  First is the obvious--unless Romney wins, it doesn't matter who the head of his transition team is.  Second, though, is how much of a role the head of the transition team plays in making policy and in selecting the people who will make policy.  If he's more of a coordinator, then it's probably no big deal.  If he's going to be a key adviser on what Romney does and/or who's going to give Romney advice on what to do, then it could be a big deal.  Remembering, of course, that it's Mitt Romney who will ultimately be responsible for what happens, not Mike Leavitt.
