Like a pissed off city or college, Hillary dumps coach after losing seaon

Ch-ch-ch-changes:

Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton replaced campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle with longtime aide Maggie Williams today, engineering a shake-up in a presidential campaign struggling to overcome rival Sen. Barack Obama's financial and political strengths. . . .

Campaign aides said Solis Doyle made the decision to leave on her own and was not urged to do so by the former first lady or any other senior member of the team. But it comes as Clinton struggles to catch Obama in fundraising and momentum and faces the prospect of losing every voting contest yet to come in February.


Oh my. Well, nothing screams a lack of confidence like changing the line-up after a rough weekend, right? Not sure why making such a change public (if it could even be kept quiet) is a GOOD thing to do, morale-wise, but if the status quo seems to no longer be working, guess something has to be done.
