Every Press Secretary Faces An Enormous Amount

Obama Has Become Too Dependent On Formal Speeches And Set Town Halls. His Idea Of Mixing It Up Is Taking Off His Jacket.

Almost All First Ladies Have Had Tremendous Power On Personnel Issues, Whether The Public Realized It Or Not, Whether It Was Barbara Bush Or Nancy Reagan Or Whoever.

I Worked For A Lot Of Candidates, In Tough Campaigns That Lost. Most Of My Candidates Lost Until Bill Clinton. There Was Always A Point Where You Look In Their Eyes And They Knew It Was Over. And There Was Never That Point With Clinton. He Never Quit. He Never Gave Up.

A Lot Of People Over Time Have Had This Kind Of Pattern In Their Relationship With Bill Clinton. You First Meet Him And You're Overwhelmed By His Talent. He's So Energetic And Articulate And Full Of Ideas And He Calls Himself A Congenital Optimist And That Optimism Is Contagious.
