onyx, I haven’t found any evidence that Schmidt is affiliated with anyone and certainly not Pawlenty. There was a story that Pawlenty picked up some McCain advisers, neither of which is Schmidt or Wallace and one of which was close enough to Palin that Allahpundit thinks he would more naturally be on Palin’s campaign if Palin were running for sure.
Schmidt is burning too many bridges. Even if you agree with his politics, you don’t want anybody like that anywhere near your campaign, because you never know if he’ll stab you in the back, too.
Dick Morris only started bashing the Clintons after he stopped advising candidates.
Thanks, Amish Dude.
I didn’t want to go off half-cocked without confirmation about Pawlenty.
I agree with you. Schmidt and even Nicole Wallace, would seem radio-active to me too. I wouldn’t want either involved in my campaign were I a pol.
{Schmidt is burning too many bridges}
I’m quite sure some RINO would love to have Schmidt on his/her team as a way to show how “moderate” they are.
After all, take a look at our RNC Chair.
Please let me know if you learn that Schmidt gains employment with anyone. I hope his “novel” is a bust.
