Emergency Operation

But this time it’s Clinton to the rescue as Kerry goes under the knife. Plus: Democratic bedside manners. Also: Big Labor’s last hurrah.
p> WHOSE PARTY? br> According to a former Clinton staffer, the late Saturday phone call between John Kerry and Bill Clinton was the first extensive conversation the two men had had since Kerry won the nomination. Former Clinton senior staffers Paul Begala and Joe Lockhart brokered the call, while another former Clinton staffer now on the Kerry payroll leaked word of the conversation to the New York Times . /p>

As reported by the Prowler last week, it isn't entirely clear how the staff shakeup affects some of the current Kerry advisers. A week ago, it appeared that Lockhart would be traveling extensively with Kerry on the campaign trail. But on Sunday it was decided that Kerry's longtime friend and adviser John Sasso would leave his post at the DNC to travel with Kerry. Lockhart, while doing some travel, is expected to stay in Washington working out the kinks in the campaign's press and rapid response operation.
