Four key Hillary Clinton staffers from 2008 unlikely to sign on for
2016 bid
Howard Wolfson, the 2008 communications director for Hillary Rodham
Clinton, has said he will not return for a 2016 presidential campaign.
Neither, for that matter, will Neera Tanden, the campaign’s policy
director. Ditto for Mark Penn, the chief strategist, and Patti Solis
Doyle, the embattled campaign manager.
As core members of a dysfunctional “Team of Rivals,” these top
advisers were seared, scattered and, to different degrees, forged by
the 2008 experience. Haunted by the failures in management and
messaging, they have worked hard to get over their shattered White
House dreams and rejection by a Democratic base enamored with Barack
Obama. They express their requisite hope that Clinton will run and
win, but also their lack of interest in jumping back in.
