As reported in a campaign press release earlier today:
* Secretary of State Madeleine Albright
* Senator David Boren, former Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence
* Secretary of State Warren Christopher
* Greg Craig, former director of the State Department Office of Policy Planning
* Secretary of the Navy Richard Danzig
* Representative Lee Hamilton, former Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee
* Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder
* Dr. Tony Lake, former National Security Advisor
* Senator Sam Nunn, former Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
* Secretary of Defense William Perry
* Dr. Susan Rice, former Assistant Secretary of State
* Representative Tim Roemer, 9/11 Commissioner
* Jim Steinberg, former Deputy National Security Advisor
No massive surprises; it's pretty much the Dems' usual suspects [insert your own snark about ChangeTM here, should you be so inclined]—although, like Digby, I'm a little surprised to see Sam Nunn and David Boren on the list, and, like Drum, I'm a little surprised to see Zbigniew Brzezinski, Bill Richardson, and Samantha Powers left off the list.
Perhaps, with regard to the latter group's exclusion (particularly Richardson, who seems a cabinet shoo-in), this NSWG list is best viewed as "People Who Won't Be in Obama's Cabinet," heh.
