Obama to Name Melody Barnes to Head White House Domestic Policy Council

No wonder he's always wearing pajamas.

Melody Barnes, a senior policy adviser for the Obama campaign and a former wonk at the Center for American Progress, will be tapped to run the White House Domestic Policy Council (that's a body that coordinates the domestic policy-making process and advises the president).
