Bush Promotes Bartlett, Hires Devenish, Keeps Rove

Bush has promoted long-time aide Dan Bartlett to counselor and is keeping senior adviser Karl Rove in his White House staff for his second term, a spokesman announced on Wednesday.

Bartlett was Bush's communications director in the first term and first worked for the president when he was governor of Texas. He assumes the job that former top aide Karen Hughes had held.


``This new position will allow him to focus more broadly on strategic communications planning and expand his role in the formulation of policy and implementation of the president's agenda,'' said White House spokesman Scott McClellan.

Nicolle Devenish, who was communications director for Bush's re-election campaign last year, will replace Bartlett as White House communications director and will be Bartlett's principal deputy. She formerly headed the White House media affairs office.
