White House Social Secretary Desiree Rogers will step down next month and be replaced by Julianna Smoot, the chief fundraiser for the Obama presidential campaign, I’ve learned.
Rogers will stay to work with Smoot to make sure of a smooth transition. I was told. Smoot was one of the first hires of the Obama presidential campaign. Her ability to raise millions for Obama in the first quarter of his presidential campaign made him a viable top-tier contender on financial par with then-rival Hillary Rodham Clinton. Smoot is now the chief of staff for U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk.
