More economists get picked up

The Economist blog reports:

We have also heard that Doug Holtz-Eakin, another former Bush administration official who went on to head the Congressional Budget Office, will be John McCain’s top economic advisor. Mr Holtz-Eakin is giving up his current job–running the Centre for Geoeconomic Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations–to work full-time for the McCain team.

Thanks to Martin Scriblerus for the pointer.
