Scandals. They help create them, market them and some fall from them.
Karl Rove, Lee Atwater, Arthur Finkelstein, Roger J. Stone, Paul Rolf Jensen, Mark McKinnon and Dick Morris to name a few of the more notable Political Strategists.
Some of these men keep switching political parties, chasing the money is my guess, or are they running from personal scandals?
I am not going to link references as there have been diaries here at Kos on these characters and their 'scandals' many times.
One of these men has their hand (or somethin' else) in the Gannon situation. Sex has always been used as a dirty trick to bring a politician down.
If one of the strategists had an axe to grind because they got fired or passed over, who better to cause a commotion? They know the ins and outs of planting information in the media.
Sinclair also have their hands in porn and own Fox etc. Enron has many political players and many more reasons to deflect attention and/or point fingers. It's an intriguing web of sex, lies and cover up and many of the above have a connection with both companies. Coincidence or what?
All of the above strategists go back in time with both George, Sr. and George Jr.
I think the strategists are playing off of each other or trying to out blackmail each other- in-fighting so to speak.
Not being a political strategist I am not sure how to pursue this to any sound conclusion. But I would like to set up a web or org board to show their connections, clients, cross connections etc.
If you know of a connection with a certain politicain and their political strategist, please comment and add to my list. Thanks.
