Personnel is policy. I have high standards and expect the same of candidates. If Thompson can't make good personnel decisions in his campaign, you have to wonder who he would pick as President.

If Spence manages a good campaign, then he has the right man for the job, no? If he hired Spence as a mid-east and immigration policy consultant, then perhaps you would have a beef.

"Personnel is policy" is catchy, and might belong in a fortune cookie somewhere. Nevertheless in the real world where the rest of us live, getting the right people in the right seats on the bus is what managing a performing organization is all about.
