Mitt Romney’s campaign adds staff amid criticism
Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign is adding two seasoned political hands to bolster the communications operation, moves that come in the wake of high profile criticism of the former Massachusetts governor’s operation from the likes of Rupert Murdoch and the Wall Street Journal editorial page.
Danny Diaz and Kevin Sheridan have both signed on to the campaign as senior advisors in an effort to strengthen an expanding Romney effort in the final four months (or so) before the November election.
Diaz, a former Republican National Committee communications director and deputy communications director for John McCain’s 2008 presidential bid, will help guide the campaign’s rapid response effort while Sheridan, a senior vice president at Edelman and a former RNC spokesman, will work hand in hand with communications director Gail Gitcho on long term communications planning for events like the national convention and the general elections debates.
“Danny and Kevin are talented campaign vets who are battle-tested and ready to jump in and help out in the last 116 days,” said Gitcho. “We are thrilled to have them join the Romney team.”
