Politico's Mike Allen reports today that Robert Gibbs, communications director in Barack Obama's presidential campaign and a key strategist who "helped plan and package" his "rapid move to the national stage," will be named as the Obama administration's White House Press Secretary. Allen adds that the "announcement is likely to be viewed favorably by reporters because Gibbs has unquestioned authority, access and institutional memory."

Watch this earlier showdown between Gibbs and Sean Hannity:

This is a bold move and will be well received by many who continue to be disgusted by the like of Blussterpuss Hannity who only wants to ask questions not hear the response.
