Pat Caddell Is Writing For Breitbart Now

He is advising Romney ($) to attack the main stream media and Barack Obama for his handling of the Middle East. I wonder what George McGovern thinks of his child prodigy.

I know Caddell went to the dark side about twenty years ago but even Dante said there are several layers to Hell...



edited McGovern to Cadell...It's not even 8:00 A.M. on the West Coast.

I've voted for any Dem from every wing of the Dem party, no matter who my first preference was, and I did for McGOVERN, admiring his idealism but knowing he couldn't win and wishing he would have stepped aside and let somebody who had a chance go for it. I even wrote him a letter saying this and wish I had not lost his reply that said he thought he might win and hoped I would support him.

But all that said, unless it was a typo about the dark side, I don't get it in the o.p.


Now CADDELL is a bitter a-hole, his only win having been CARTER. All his campaigns ever since have been losers, including the New Coke.

LOL at the New Coke fiasco. Caddell's bad advice almost single handedly brought down one of America's most venerable institutions. However he denies giving it. That's not what folks were saying contemporaneously.
