Politico: In a major shakeup at the Democratic National Committee — and a departure from tradition — large parts of the committee’s operations are relocating to Chicago to be fully integrated with the Obama campaign.

The DNC’s political department, housed in Washington, D.C., will be dramatically rebuilt, with staffers offered a choice of moving to Chicago, joining state operations, or staying in Washington, DNC spokeswoman Karen Finney said.

But the power will clearly be shifting to a centralized Chicago hub.

The DNC’s key role in coordinating political operations with state parties is expected to largely be taken over and overseen by Obama’s senior staff in Chicago, state party officials said.

With the DNC RBC seating of MI and FL delegates, I think its fair to say, considering the Chuck Todd math, that it is over, and the Dems have a nominee in Barack Obama. He’s ours.

PS: I love Jason Mraz and Chuck Todd. And isn’t Harold Ickes a dick? Props to Wexler, Levin, and Brazille, who I thought were outstanding. And a big time hug for the hardwork done by Phil McNamara at the DNC.
