Someone over at the Fisher camp really needs to take some medication for the whole “endorsement” press release twitch. ?Anthony notices that David Plouffe, superstar of the Obama campaign, really isn’t all that much of an endorsement.
What the CNN article fails to mention is Plouffe’s consulting firm, AKPD Message and Media is one of Fisher’s consultants. So, while Plouffe certainly has star appeal, he also has obvious motives for supporting his own client. I don’t have any problem with Fisher’s campaign using him this way. What’s sad is the reporting that made this sound like a coup when it was nothing more than a consultant doing a favor for a client.
