Update

I wanted to touch base with you about march allocations.
We have not received a plan from CDA or an accounting of jan and feb expenses.

We have touched base with tom and susan and they have said documents are with the lawyers.

CDA it appears have received resources from other places as they are up on the air in ohio and have done a test in PA.

They are recieiving press on the ads and we are concerned with the way FFA is portrayed today in john marshalls blog ( see below) and yesterday in the hotline.

http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/03/dem_third_party_group_dumps_14.php

I will let you know once we have the plan in hand.
We have no plans to move money until we have the plan in hand.

Please let us know if you have questions.
Thank you,
Amy

Victoria and Jennifer will be ready to provide an update on Wednesday, November 23rd. John had said before he left for China he could come in person midday. My father is available after 12pm and I was waiting to hear back from John before reaching out to Bruce about his availability for a call - Bruce though now that we're on this chain, when are you available? Would 1-3 or 2-4 work? Or?
Cheryl, Victoria told me you were not able to work out how to become covered under privilege. As such, she recommended our meeting and call be only my father, the Board and John. My father wants it to be Bruce, John, me and him.
Please advise and I'll also touch base with Victoria.
Thanks.

The WSJ story seems to be more about the HRC/Biden dynamic, so we don't have to be in it - I did not give a quote.  The Politico story is dead.

I feel I should write you all an update but I’m not sure what to write.  It is very much Groundhog Day around here.  I wake at the same time every morning and eat the same breakfast in more or less the same seat at the same DFAC every single day of the week.  The first couple days I was here they served mango yogurt and it was the best.  Every morning I excitedly approach the yogurt bin to discover, again, no mango.  Friday is Steak Night.  Saturday lunch is Mongolian Grill.  Thursday is Afghan (I seem to be the only one that actually eats it).

I suppose that I should be thankful that my experience here is routine.  Excitement is likely synonymous with danger.  But the days go slow.

Having said that, I’m somehow 16% of the way done.  As slow as the days seem to pass, the weeks have gone by quickly.  We’re down to a skeleton staff at Camp Phoenix as folks redeploy to the states or move within Afghanistan.  Amazingly, I am now the senior USAF Captain in the legal office.  In a matter of weeks I’ve seen three go home and as a result I’m no longer the new guy; I’m the experienced veteran.

Hope you all are well.  I love and miss you!

I'll be home around 6:00 am your time

I'm home email if you have time to talk

Well at least the four guys who are supposed to close the building can do their job and go home. Hang in there.

Senator John Culver. The actual quote was you can hang by your thimbs for..., but I don't think that would have mattered to your co-worker.  Not to make a pun, but hang in there.

All is good. Trying to figure out which senior defense official I can hitch a ride with to come visit you.

I won't lie--I did wonder if you might be able to make it to Bagram while I'm here.  If you can make it here on the 27th we're running a 10k on base for Memorial Day.

We all came over this morning via helicopter.  Since I may only be here for a couple weeks they can't get me into permanent housing yet and thus the three legal guys will share the transient "can."  It is a tiny storage container with bunk beds in it.  My coworkers, who will leave in a matter of days for Qatar, were kind enough to grab the bottom bunks while I humped their weapon cases into the compound.  Then they showed us the legal office.  There are two desks.  They were kind enough to claim those as well.  Odd, considering that I AM STAYING TO WORK HERE!

 

I've concluded that this place can bring out the best or the worst in a person.  My coworkers have clearly allowed this place to bring out the worst in them and that it is every man for himself.  I've decided to go in the opposite direction: I'll get one chance to make a positive contribution here so I'm going to make the most of it.  I'm actually glad to be here as I'm surrounded by other people and I can escape my coworkers' constant complaining.

 

I should know more about where I'll end up in a couple days (I've been saying that since I got here).  Nonetheless, I'll keep you all posted.

I'm running from here at Bagram.  Probably on the dreadmill.  You're up early today (or getting to bed really late).  Where are we going on our post-deployment vacation to get our well-needed rest?

Hands full may be a misnomer.  I had my hand operated on on Wednesday and I'm walking around  my right hand in a big bandage. I'll check into this.

Good luck this week with your adoring fans and your crazy critics. Seems really good so far.

Mary sends love.

We are adding both house and senate majority pac fundraisers later this month. You had first suggested doing it so wanted to close the loop. Will also send you a revised calender of political travel this month. 

I made it back stateside very late on Thursday night.  The "freedom flight" let us off in Baltimore and I spent the night with Mom and Dad before making taking the final flight back to the Pacific Northwest.  As you might imagine, I am very, very glad to be home and looking forward to seeing you all soon.  Thanks for all the emails and support over the last seven months.

Love,

Gabe

Meant to email sooner that she was seeing Pollack and Anzalone today. 
She seemed to like both of them and basically told them both they would be part of this initial plan. No promises. 

Adding a different email for Cheryl on here.

We had a good meeting today to ratify the research plan and discuss staffing structure and talent.  Few things to report out:

1. We seem to have a settled on a team for the research project--we just need to lock in the media people.  Attached is the latest draft of the one pager.  I'm hoping to get the team discussing and editing the project design over the holiday so we can present a proposal to HRC at the beginning of Jan.  Fingers crossed.

2. Good discussion about digital and tech.  I think we have some good digital options...she approved setting up an interview process for CTO candidates, since we want someone outside politics for this role and we need outside advice on candidates.

3. Self research: Cheryl, she wanted to keep Heather and the team going from DC.  I flagged that we will likely need to expand the team to 5-10 people, which she seemed fine with.  I also flagged that self research is so integral to rapid response, vetting, content, etc that we'd probably want a contingent in HQ to prevent bottlenecks.  We agreed I'd loop back with you to discuss options--I think a hybrid model may work.  Let's discuss.

4. We had a good discussion about communications.  John there are some WH people I'd like to discuss.  I'll follow up.  Any names welcome!

Dear Robby 

On the agenda, my only adds are a quick update/readout on the things in your original email:  research project, digital/tech/cto interviews; and comms (you put self-research on agenda). 

Best.

My update is as follows:

1. JOM:  I had a good conversationw ith JOM on Monday.  She was very gracious; honored to be considered (and very complimentary of RM); did not think there was a role that made sense for her to move her family given her role as deputy campaign manager for 2012 where she had accountability for building and operating substantial aspects of the campaign. Would be happy to be considered to be a part-time senior advisor if that made sense for the ultimate manager.  She would be willing to travel back and forth and shared that in 2012, they had senior managers who had accountability for areas or projects so there was clear lines and expectations -- that is a model in which she would be able to participate best.  I asker here wehre she thought, given the breadth of her experience she could best add value -- she said in two places:  1) as sounding board to manager on what and how they structured and the campaign (and is happy to do that now without compensation since much of that will happen in the next two months) and 2) as end-user consumer/evaluator and partner to ensure the tools built meet the needs of field in specific places, including what tools are really valuable and what are not and how to design to outcomes that are practical and accessible for field staff.  

2. DG -- exchanged emails with DG; she is on holiday until 5 January; we are connecting that Monday; I don't know that she will be looking to move from where she landed at her firm but will push; JJS advised that she is terrific though he thinks of her less operationally and more at the intersection of policy, politics and action (e.g., she believes she is excellent at policy and politics).

3. Self-Research -- spoke to HRC. As we discussed, her definition of what she sees remaining with personal lawyers and HFS is the narrow areas we discussed (e.g., taxes, health, finances/speeches, family) though she added BZ.  I shared that HFS can continue to manage in partnership with outside personal counsel (including DEK, HT, me) but that self-research as a whole (and explained the larger paradigm) should be in NY and run by someone sitting in NYC,with which she agreed.  We discussed HFS; she wants her doing these areas, vetting, and personnel from a perch in the Legal Counsel operation or the COO operation -- RM let's discuss so it is consistent with your vision, organizational paradigm and goals.

4. WC --- she executed her paperwork and will be live in DC or NYC (she wants to be wherever RM will be) effective January 12 (the week before she has to do some transition work for her team member who will be stepping in for 90 days). I agreed to secure her housing -- which is done for NYC -- but if she is to come to DC, I need to do that so let me know.

I think those are all my updates.

best.

Madame Secretary,
Quick update for you:
(1) Brian's video is great and it's being emailed tomorrow to launch
the Briefing Room website.
(2) We met again today to brainstorm the speech outline with Dan and
he is going to have a draft outline for the team by COB tonight.  We
will reconvene again tomorrow to give him feedback and our goal is to
get a revised outline to you tomorrow COB.  We will then do a call
with you to discuss it and Dan will then create and initial draft with
Lissa and Joel.
Kristina will also send an overview memo with our goals, objectives
and plan for the launch overall.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Robby

Hi - wanted to update your on a conversation I had with Marlon yesterday - we were talking about March states and he raised an issue from Nov of my missing two flights.  I told him that yes, I missed one flight but paid $900 out of my pocket to get another flight and did not miss any events, one interview was re-sked but it was taped so did not miss a live hit.  The second Delta airlines admitted fault because the gate agent closed the door 15 min early, they put me on another flight at no cost  and I did not miss any events. 

I am not sure why Marlon raised this now as an issue with me but I wanted to flag it for you since when you asked if I had received any feedback or criticism I had said no because I hadn't hear anything until this yesterday.

Also, I reached out to John; we are supposed to talk this week.
