[quote=Anonymous]Even if you are a politico appointee in this admin, it does not follow that you will get to keep the slot in the next admin, even if the Dems win again. That said, if you are talking about an appointment to lower level position, getting in now will allow you to be better positions for a higher level position in a later admin. In short, a political appointment is always a short term gig. The people I have met who were able to capitalize on their political appointment, were people who were already doing well in the private sector. I know of a number of people who were in the second Bush admin who, so far, have not seen their careers greatly improve because of their service. If anything, it was as if they pulled themselves off track for 2-4 years. If the Repubs take back the White House, however, I imagine some will be able to go back in at a level higher than when they left. [/quote]
