ace...there is much more to a transition than simply appointing the highest level people.
The idea is to be able to be "up and running" asap after the inauguration with people (at the highest 3-4 levels) and general policy guideline in place across the dozens of departments/agencies in the executive branch.
That takes time...not simply being a Washington insider.
