Beltway speak

A Palpable Silence at the White House
Few Ready to Face Effects of Leak Case

From an article discussing who would take over if Rove has to step down:

Mehlman, who was White House political director before becoming chairman of the Republican National Committee, has been a key adviser, although some colleagues worry that bringing in the party chief might send too political a message.

Huh?

First, who would be concerned by that, and second, who would be surprised by a political move here? Every move by the Bubble Boy administration is political.

Yes, I'm nitpicking. Just struck me as odd.
