Here's some info on Trippi:
About Joe
Joe Trippi, heralded on the cover of The New Republic as the man who “reinvented campaigning,” was born in California and began his political career working on Edward M. Kennedy’s presidential campaign in 1980. His work in presidential politics continued with the campaigns of Walter Mondale, Gary Hart, Richard Gephardt and most recently Howard Dean.
As a campaign manager, Trippi has run presidential, Senate, gubernatorial and mayoral campaigns. He was selected by former Vice President Walter Mondale to manage Iowa’s first-in-the-nation caucuses in 1984 and later went on to run several key states for the Mondale for President campaign. In 1988, Trippi was the Deputy National Campaign Manager for Richard Gephardt’s presidential campaign.
In 2004, he was National Campaign Manager for Howard Dean’s presidential campaign, pioneering the use of online technology to organize what became the largest grassroots movement in presidential politics. Through Trippi’s innovative use of the internet for small-donor fundraising, Dean for America ended up raising more money than any Democratic presidential campaign in history, all with donations averaging less than $100 each. Trippi’s innovations have brought fundamental change to the electoral system and will be the model for how all future political campaigns are run.
Trippi began his work in media consulting at the Democratic media firm of Doak, Shrum and Associates, where he was involved in developing the strategy and producing the media for the successful campaigns of Jerry Baliles for Governor of Virginia and Bob Casey for Governor of Pennsylvania. Trippi was also instrumental in the re-election campaigns of U.S. Senator Alan Cranston of California and Mayor Tom Bradley of Los Angeles.
Trippi wouldn't be posting this one his web site if he didn't think it is positive. I'm a bit confused by the "caught on call" subject line of this post. Sounds about as misleading as most MSM headlines.
Cubicle bound, I am lucky not to answer the phone and burn my ear on the soldering iron.
Just emailed sweet baby james to get a copy for the radio station. They should be able to get a clear copy.
Really? Mine says 47 minutes... and Mickey's beginning to cry.

Liberals think that abortion is positive.
If we can promise to fly 20 or more shooters to each event (15 in all) they might help with a discount on fares.
Is that you?
They asked her if she were getting medical care. What morons!
"Gary Hart, Walter Mondale and Howard (the duck) Dean..."
So what you're saying is, this guys a loser?
I'm not quite understanding this comment.
Grandpa used to say: 87 Minutes!
"She's not going to dignify Reilly's show by going on."
The "reporters" that are questioning her are complete left-wingers.
