Matthew Dowd is a “republican” consultant who was the chief strategist for GW Bush in the 2004 campaign (my total agreement with Jesse Jackson on his one statement, “stay out of the Bushes”. He works for ABC or some such network and was on Election Night as their token “republican” Trump hater, worse than the radical Dems they had on (you can watch this on YouTube, there is not a single alternative viewpoint expressed). Anyway, he looks like Mr. Magoo and I doubt anyone in the military would ever confide an item of the most meagre strategic interest to him.
You sure it wasn’t Maureen Dowd with a sex change?
Oh well, another theory is killed by cold hard facts.
Yes, you are correct. He is also Maureen Dowd’s brother and claims they totally disagree with each other. Yeah right. His ideas for Bush’s media campaign sucked royally. Everyone else pretty much politely tuned him out.
