I expect the craven White House Press Corpse will miss him too.

You are missing the real point here. Obama cannot fire anyone within his inner circle. Because the image of Obama as a well-read, intelligent scholar making reasoned decisions will not survive the inner circle revelation that he is actually a disinterested, shallow, chain-smoking wreck. For that, he needs to keep his inner circle tight.

I remember seeing one of his first press briefings and thinking that he was incompetent and wouldn’t last a month. I’m amazed that he’s lasted this long.

If Gibbs remains an inner-circle advisor, so much the better. Gibbs is an idiot and his counsel will keep Obama on the road to an early retirement.

The shuffle in the Obama Administration has all sorts of possibilities. It is expected that few if any new faces will appear. Most likely it will just be a game of inner-circle musical chairs. Just imagine if Michelle would take the job as Press Secretary. Since Joe Biden is obviously underemployed, maybe he could serve a dual role! Personally I would favor Biden for sheer entertainment potential. Michelle is too defensive.
