Mac (the Knife) Stipanovich is cribbin’ my line about Rick Scott being Skeletor

in Statewide by

Alright, before I get into this, let me just say that I recognize Mac Stipanovich is way, way more powerful than me.  He’s even been portrayed by an actual Hollywood actor in a made-for-HBO movie. So I really shouldn’t be calling him out, but then I read what Adam Smith tweeted over the weekend: @adamsmithtimes: Mac Stipanovich on Rick Scott vs Bill McCollum: “Skeletor vs. Jimmy Neutron.” Dude, there is no way Mac the Knife is down with Skeletor.  Stipanovich…

in Peter/Statewide by

Kenneth Quinnell, the uber-smart new media director for the Kendrick Meek campaign, recently asked a few of us in the blogging community for feedback on “on the candidate, the campaign and our new media outreach efforts.” While I am sure Ken would have preferred for me to deliver my counsel privately, I wouldn’t tell him anything privately that I wouldn’t write on this blog.  So here goes: Dear Kenneth: Let me begin by commending you for continuing to reach out…

in Peter/The Bay and the 'Burg by
