| Description | Hillary Rodham Clinton announced her plans only yesterday, but she already has a campaign team that is the envy of many in the political world.
Fiercely loyal and disciplined, Clinton's operation is stocked with savvy political veterans, many of whom trace their ties to the senator back to her tumultuous days in the White House. It's a team that has already seen Clinton through two statewide elections in New York and made her one of the Senate's most successful fundraisers.
"They are very talented and very tight and the most important thing is that they are loyal to her," said Hank Sheinkopf, a veteran Democratic strategist. "They have been through a lot with her."
Among those at the core of Team Clinton are: Patti Solis-Doyle, a veteran political organizer whose relationship with Clinton dates to her days as first lady of Arkansas; Mandy Grunwald, a communications consultant and veteran of Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign; Mark Penn, a veteran pollster who last month co-authored a Washington Post op-ed article with James Carville that sought to debunk the theory that Clinton is too polarizing to be elected president; and Yonkers native Howard Wolfson, who served as the ever-present spokesman for Clinton's 2000 and 2006 Senate campaigns.
And, of course, Clinton has easy access to advice from one of the nation's most sought-after political figures: her husband. |
