Welcome to Strategic Politics 2008

This blog will analyze political strategy and keep you up to date on all the major races that are interesting to me.

I will analyze fundraising, ads, ad buys, messaging, polls, media coverage, and the major stories affecting the 2008 political landscape.

I am a veteran of many political campaigns. I managed (and won) a campaign for Andy Herod, a candidate for County Commission in Athens, GA.

Recently I moved from Athens, GA to the Twin Cities area in Minnesota. I got married in May to a (former) single mother, with a 4 year old son.

I have always been passionate about politics. I recall my mother taking me to see Bill Clinton when he dropped by Columbus, GA (where I grew up) for a campaign stop in 1992. I was not quite eight years old at the time. On election night 1992 I remember the blue states were good, and the red states were bad. I have been hooked ever since. I am a lifelong Democrat, but this blog will be about analyzing strategy from both parties.

What was your first political memory?
