LANSING, Mich. -- Gov. Jennifer Granholm can't run for president, but she could still end up in Washington next year.
President-elect Barack Obama tapped the Democratic governor several times during his campaign to talk about the need to create new alternative energy jobs as traditional manufacturing jobs disappear.
Granholm has made attracting wind turbine manufacturers and alternative energy suppliers a key part of her administration's economic development strategy.
Now, there's a chance Obama could ask her to lead the federal Department of Energy.
The Canadian-born governor said she's ready to work with Obama as governor until her term expires in 2010, but hasn't ruled out leaving.
She's also been mentioned as a possible U.S. Supreme Court justice.
