Rauner Assembles "All-Star" Transition Team; Recruits Bill Daley

Gov.-elect Rauner vowed to shake up Springfield throughout the campaign, and two days after winning the election with 51 percent of the vote, Rauner announced a 25-person team to begin the transition process and build a new administration.

The team Rauner put together is diverse, consisting of African-American ministers from Chicago’s South Side to life-long Democrats, including President Obama’s former Chief of Staff, Bill Daley.

While this might indicate Rauner’s willingness to work across party lines to solve the state’s crises, can the status quo actually change when some members of the team long have been part of that status quo? Take a look at whom Rauner recruited and decide for yourself.

Also, the Devil’s Advocate made an appearance today and really stirred the pot. See what he had to say to Illinois voters for electing Rauner.
