Brian Wingfield says:

Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and health care guru Nancy-Ann DeParle are tapped to fill the dual roles in the administration originally slated for former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle. While Sebelius, the HHS nominee, will get most of the ink from the media, the one to watch on health care will be DeParle, who is nominated to head the White House Office of Health Reform.
