DescriptionIt still isn't clear exactly what role Maryland Attorney General Doug Gansler (D-Bethesda) will have in finding the district of Maryland's next U.S. attorney, but speculation continues that he will play a significant part.

On Thursday, Gansler announced he would have a role in President-elect Barack Obama's transition as an advisor to the U.S. Department of Justice. In addition, Gansler's political director, Antigonie Davis, played down rumors that the attorney general himself was interested in becoming a U.S. attorney.

"He likes his job. He's gonna stay serving Marylanders," Davis told PolitickerMD.com. Gansler is frequently rumored to be eying a run for the governorship in 2010.
