Q. Can you enlighten us as to whether your brother plans to stay on as head of Medicare? And, while we’re at it, whether you plan to stay on –

SCOTT McCLELLAN: Well, we never speculate on personnel matters, and I wouldn’t do that on family members, either. I think that the President believes Dr. McClellan is an outstanding member of this team and he’s doing a great job overseeing the Medicare program. He’s been there for about eight months now; we’re going through some historic reforms. And that’s the way the President views it. In fact, he’ll be over here shortly to update the President on some of the Medicare reforms that we’re putting in place.

Q. Will you stay with us?

MR. McCLELLAN: I never speculate on personnel matters. And I work at the patience of my wife. (Laughter.)
