I sure like the title, and some contents of the article hearten me. But Ed Rollins? Isn't he the one who went to work for Ross Perot, then quit and said he was nuts; who talked about "walkin' around money," and all? In other words, isn't he really unstable and unreliable, and don't I remember thinking he should be blackballed for life??

Rollins ... isn't he really unstable and unreliable?

I guess the larger percentage of Undecided voters is in this category.. I could see the strategery in that in California. :-)

ROLLINS RETURNS-June 22, 2002

ED ROLLINS RETURNS

Veteran Republican political operative Ed Rollins is being brought in to advise Bill Simon's uphill campaign against California's Democratic Gov. Gray Davis.

The political career of Rollins, a native Californian, peaked in 1984 when he managed President Ronald Reagan's re-election campaign. He angered Republican regulars in 1992 when he briefly ran Ross Perot's presidential campaign before being dismissed by the candidate. Sal Russo, a Sacramento-based campaign consultant working for Simon, was associated with Rollins in his Perot endeavor.

A footnote: Gerald Parsky, President Bush's chief political agent in California, last week was instrumental in placing an ally, John Peschong, as Simon's campaign manager. But Parsky definitely was not involved in hiring Rollins.

Was Peschong Parsky's 'MOLE', and was he one of those let go this week? Moves in the 'right' direction-started 2 months ago.
