D-Day for Dee Dee?

Washington — Embattled White House press secretary Dee Dee Myers is digging in her heels amid growing efforts to push her out. According to a senior Administration official, Myers has resisted suggestions that she leave. She and other Administration insiders argue that the President’s inner circle has not given her access to the information she needs to do her job. “She won’t go without a fight,” the official says. The dilemma: chief of staff Leon Panetta is said to fear that if he fires Myers, the move will alienate women voters.
