Bush asks old friends to fill key posts
The Associated Press
KENEBUNKPORT, Maine — George Bush's top advisers are most longtime friends and loyalists whom he trusted for strategy during his campaign and to whom he now turns for advice as
But today, Bush will have to reach beyond this inner circle to try to forge a working relationship with a former political rival, Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole of Kansas.
The meeting could be an early test of Bush's ability to work with Congress. The two are to meet for lunch in Bush's vice presidential office in the Executive Office Building.
There is one new face in Bush's inner circle — New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu, who will be White House chief-of-staff. Otherwise, Bush's closest associates are for the most part those who advised him during the campaign, including James A. Baker III, Nicholas Brady, Lee Awater
and Robert Teeter.
Some members of Bush's inner circle have already been rewarded for their loyalty with Cabinet posts, including Baker who will be secretary of state.
Baker, 58, is one of Bush's best friends. The friendship goes back more than two decades to when they forged a social and political alliance in the 1960s that led to the Vietnam race and his 1980 and 1983 presidential bids.
Baker, it has been widely reported, could have had any job in a Bush administration he wanted; Bush announced him as secretary of state the day after the election.
Another longtime Bush friend already holding a Cabinet job is Treasury Secretary Brady — whom Reagan chose last August to fill the vacancy created when Baker resigned to oversee Bush's general election campaign. A New York investment banker, the wealthy Republican also represented New Jersey in the Senate from 1980-82.
Sununu, 49, was not a member of Bush's inner circle previously, but was an early and tireless campaign volunteer.
Bush is known to credit Sunium at least in part for his comeback victory in last winter's New Hampshire primary — which, coming after Bush's heat in Iowa, put him squarely on the victory trail.
Teeter, 49. a Republican pollster who worked full-time in Bush's campaign and is currently co-director of the Bush transition team, is another Bush confidant.
Atwater, 37, the brash and innovative political operator who was Bush's campaign manager, is another close adviser whom the president-elect consults frequently. Bush has named Atwater, who is chairman for Sten Srom Thurmond, R.S.C., as chairman of the Republican National Committee.
