Scolese as Acting Administrator?

Editor’s note: Some issues are being worked between DOJ and the White House as to whether Chris Scolese can serve as Acting Administrator when Mike Griffin departs until the Obama Administration’s candidate is confirmed by the Senate.

Contrary to some rumors going around, Shana Dale will most certainly not be Acting Administrator. Friday is her last day at NASA.

It is important to note that this is a personnel issue being managed by the current Bush Administration – not the Obama Transition Team since it deals with personnel events before 20 January.
