Linda Rozett, communications director for Thompson, is out -- a move by campaign director Bill Lacy
to assert control over the organization apparently. The same report
and others inidcate Lacy wants to have someone with
campaign experience in that role. This seems an excellent notion
and improved press communication and messaging will be key in
making Thomposn competitive with other opponents who frankly have
very strong teams.Does that mean Jim Mills, former Fox producer,
won't get the top job? Robert Traynham, formerly longtime spokesman
for Rick Santorum, is still aboard. Burson Sndyer, another
communications hand, also departed recently.
