Default Bush team trying to keep control?

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/pres...in-charge.html

Now President Bush has signed an executive order creating a Presidential Transition Coordinating Council to smooth the transition. He proposes to coordinate with both Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain until the election, then work with the winner. As White House press secretary Dana Perino explained, after eight eventful years in office, "Our nation is at war, we are dealing with a financial crisis and we are trying to protect ourselves from terrorist attacks."


But Paul C. Light, a professor of public policy at New York University and a long-time student of the U.S. federal government bureaucracy, is concerned. In an interview, he raised a red flag about the council's possible impact:
The Bush administration had such a reputation for secrecy and self- promotion that I don’t know if they’ll use the Council and these guidelines to control the incoming administration.
