New White House press secretary
Dana Perino concedes that she doesn't have
Tony Snow's star quality or self-assurance in front of the cameras, "but I do strive to be accurate and informative and have a little bit of fun." At briefings, "there's a little bit of grandstanding, maybe, but I felt like there was a little bit less when I was doing the briefings. Maybe I just don't have the capacity, or I don't spar with them like Tony did. He likes a good debate. I like to get on and off the podium quicker -- give the answer and represent the president and his views as best I can."
