Talking Politics - Gabrieli's new flacks

Gabrieli's new flacks


That's right--we're talking plural here, folks.

Here's the press release the Gabrieli camp put out this afternoon. (I'd draw some sort of comparison between Kristina Saunders' experience and Richard Chacon's, but people would probably get all pissed off.)

GABRIELI CAMPAIGN EXPANDS TEAM
Boston, MA – The Gabrieli for Governor campaign announces the addition of Kristina Saunders and Becky Deusser to the communications team.  Ms. Saunders will serve as the Communications Director and oversee press operations for the campaign.  Ms. Deusser joins Press Secretary Dan Cence in the press shop where she will serve as Deputy Press Secretary. Before joining the Gabrieli campaign, Kristina Saunders served as a regional spokesperson for the Democratic National Committee where she oversaw the press operations in several key battleground states during the 2004 Presidential election, including on the ground management in Florida.  Prior to joining the DNC she worked on the Presidential campaign of Gen. Wes Clark and served as his press secretary in the first-in-the-nation primary state of New Hampshire. Becky Deusser comes to the Gabrieli campaign from the Lowell Sun where she covered the State House. Deusser is a life-long resident of Massachusetts where she has worked in journalism for the last five years.

Well, I wouldn't have said anything. But since you asked, hmm, let's see. Florida '04, and Wes Clark's campaign. And how'd all that work out for ya?

Point taken. I guess the question is, is high-level experience on failed campaigns better than no experience whatsoever? Now I'll pipe down, since I know neither Chacon nor Saunders.

A fair question. I could make a case for the answer going either way. But it's not obvious to me which is better.

Since he did work for Mayor Dinkins, one would consider that pretty good front-line experience, plus he was City Hall bureau chief for the Globe, which is not bad political experience either
