Barack Obama is due to meet with a team of economic advisors today to discuss how to deal with the worst financial crisis in decades. He will also hold his first news conference as president-elect where he's likely to face questions about who he plans to appoint to various cabinet positions. Obama made his first key administration appointment on Thursday by naming U.S. Representative Rahm Emanuel of Illinois as his chief of staff.
