Ed Gillespie to be on Hardball. The new head of the RNC. We should expect Tweety to box his ears over Nigergate.

Found this on Ed Gillespie:

(snip)Edward W. Gillespie was selected by President George Walker Bush as National Chairman of the Republican National Committee on June 16, 2003:

"Gillespie, 41, was strategist for Elizabeth Dole's 2002 Senate campaign and was a senior communications adviser in Austin for Bush's first campaign. Gillespie is a founder and principal of Quinn Gillespie & Associates, which represents energy, steel and timber interests, plus such corporate giants as Microsoft Corp. and Verizon Communications Inc.

"About two-thirds of the firm's work is government relations and the rest is public relations and strategy, he said. Gillespie, who was chosen partly for his skill as a partisan pundit, was a drafter of the House GOP's "Contract With America" in 1994, and rose from his job as a nighttime telephone solicitor in the basement of the RNC headquarters in 1985.

"Democrats have long said they plan to try to paint Bush as a tool of corporate interests, and the Democratic National Committee seized on Gillespie's former representation of Enron Corp., the collapsed energy-trading company with long ties to Bush. The Democrats issued a statement with the headline, 'Bush Taps Enron Lobbyist to Head RNC.'

"Public Citizen, a liberal advocacy group, published a 25-page report calling Gillespie 'an embedded lobbyist' and asserting that his appointment 'has opened a conduit for corporate America to strengthen its already formidable influence in the White House and Congress.' (snip/...)
