Wasserman-Shultz is New DNC Chair

Debbie Wasserman-Shultz, a congresswoman representing the Fort Lauderdale area of the key swing state of Florida, has been selected to replace former Virginia Governor Tim Kaine as chair of the Democratic National Committee. Kaine stepped down to run for the United States Senate seat being vacated by Jim Webb.

Expect to see Wasserman-Shultz, who is Jewish, become a key surrogate for President Obama during his re-election campaign.
