If personnel are policy, this does not bode well for the Administration

 Well, this is an unexpected headline.  Keisha Lance Bottoms to join White House by Alexi McCammond.  KLB was the mayor of Atlanta for a single term, choosing not to run for a second term when it became clear that even in uni-party Atlanta where only Democrats run, she had no chance of reelection.  Her mismanagement, catastrophic and inexplicable decisions, her proclivity to wildly wave the race card even in the most inapplicable circumstances, combined with the remaining whiff of corruption led to a marked decline in quality of life and a striking rise in crime in the City, all in four years.  

As the Democratic incumbent Mayor, she couldn't muster support from a City that only votes Democrat.

Ultimately, a hands off approach to things, leadership qualities of moldy left-over Chinese food in the refrigerator, an incapacity to know anything or to articulate a clear and meaningful sentence, and the odor of wrong-doing and possible corruption meant that she became unpalatable and she declined to run again.  

This is one of those politicians who has accomplished almost literally nothing beneficial for her City or her constituents ever.  Yet, within the Democratic Party, she has in the past been described as a rising star.  One would have thought her crashing and burning as Mayor followed by declining the ambassadorship to the Bahama's or leadership of the SBA, would have seen her feeble career ultimately fade into the shrubbery.

But here she is, like Banquo's ghost, still haunting the Party.  This isn't scraping the bottom of the barrel.  These going out back to see if you can anything on the dung heap.  

I have been somewhat suspicious that one of the Administration's self-inflicted wounds has been an apparent incapacity to even select and appoint individuals with the basic ability to walk and chew gum at the same time.  

This would seem to validate that hypothesis.  Bad things will happen to any enterprise when led by the magnificently incompetent.

And if she was considered a viable candidate, just imagine the quality of the next appointment
