The Obama transition team is clearly being careful to not leave a void of national leadership on the economy -- or at least the perception of it, during the presidential interregnum -- and are now having Joe Biden pick up the slack during Barack Obama's trip to Hawaii.

Biden will be holding a briefing with Obama's top economic advisers tomorrow, scheduled for 10:45 a.m. ET. The group will be giving opening remarks to the press at the beginning of it, and will be discussing the economic stimulus package that the incoming White House will be submitting to Congress in January.
