Gibbs to Step Down as Obama Spokesman Amid White House Shakeup

Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is stepping down as the chief spokesman for the White House to become an outside adviser to the president and his re-election campaign. (Yeah right :rolleyes:)

Gibbs will leave after Obama delivers his State of the Union address at the end of this month, a senior administration official told Fox News. While Gibbs will no longer be the face of the administration, he will still be giving speeches on behalf of the president and making TV appearances.

"It is an honor and a privilege to stand here, to work inside this building,to serve your country, to work for a president that I admire as much as President Barack Obama," he told reporters in the White House briefing room on Wednesday.

No successor has been immediately named. But Gibbs told The New York Times, which first reported the departure, that a replacement will likely be announced within the next two weeks.

Gibbs' departure from the briefing room podium is part of a broader shakeup in President Obama's senior leadership team as the White House pivots to deal with a new era of divided government in Washington.
