VP Elect Sen. Joe Biden has tapped VP Gore veteran Ron Klain to be his chief of staff.
Earlier in his career, he clerked for Supreme Court Justice Byron White during the Court's 1987 and 1988 terms and worked on Capitol Hill, where he was Chief Counsel of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee.
Klain had also previously been close to Sen. Biden through his service as counsel to the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary Committee, when Sen. Biden was its Chairman.
Ron Klain was portrayed by actor Kevin Spacey in the 2008 film "Recount."

Thanks for this, Erin! Yes, Mr. Klain has a great new boss.
I forgot about the movie, and Spacey's role...even more fascinating.
