Cheat Sheet

Barack Obama may have already filled the highest profile positions in his cabinet, but that doesn't mean there aren't any coveted spots left working for the President-elect. The best of the remaining posts include Secretary of Energy, CIA Director, Director of National Intelligence, Secretary of Labor, and Chief Technology Officer, all low-profile sub-Cabinet positions that could see a boost in importance given the financial crisis and Obama's priorities. Politico identifies the front runners for the positions, including Retired Navy Admiral Dennis Blair for National Intelligence, Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm for Labor, and Google CEO Eric Schmidt for Tech czar. But there's one long shot candidate who would likely make the biggest splash if appointed—The Governator. Yes, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who seemed interested in the job atop the Energy department earlier this summer but has since backed off, might find himself in the White House after all.
