The revolving door between Wall Street and the White House just swung around again

Former Counselor to Treasury Secretary Geithner Is New Goldman PR Chief

Richard Siewert Jr. has officially been hired to head Goldman's public relations team, reports DealBook.

It's all about access and Siewert will provide access for Goldman Sachs into the Obama administration, where Goldman's CEO Lloyd Blankfein has bumbled things.

Siewert is a total insider. He is a graduate of Yale, was telecommunications director at the Democratic Governors Association, special assistant to the president at the National Economic Council and press secretary for Bill Clinton administration....

Bottom line: The man is a walking, talking influence peddler. Blankfein should be able to sleep well knowing that Siewert will be able to get Goldman into all the new bankster-government scams that will develop as the economy continues on its mad roller coaster ride.
