As Bush, Obama met for power lunch, so did their staffers
From CNN's Chief National Correspondent John King


Bush press secretary Dana Perino gave Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs a tour of the White House Briefing Room.

(CNN) — While the former, current and future presidents met for lunch today at the White House, staffers for the outgoing and incoming administrations followed their lead: Bush chief of staff Josh Bolten had lunch with Rahm Emanuel, who will fill the same role in the Obama administration; White House counselor Ed Gillespie had lunch with Obama senior advisor David Axelrod; and Bush press secretary Dana Perino had lunch with Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs, who will take her place behind the press room podium.

3. Gibbs looks like he's lost some weight
getting ready for the position.
