Hillary Clinton Campaign Director Patti Solis Doyle has stepped down.

Maggie Williams will now take her place. Mark Penn stays where he is, for the time being.

Big news.

[Update: Solis Doyle will remain a "Senior Adviser" to the campaign -- and some are spinning this as Doyle's decision to step aside rather than being deposed by Clinton. My Hillaryland source reiterated that Doyle was moved out of her spot by Hillary Clinton. I am "reframing" Doyle's move from serving as Campaign Manager to Senior Advisor as "stepping down" rather than "fired" based on a conversation with another senior Clinton campaign staff member.]
