The Hotline Daily Troika: IA, NH, SC

  • As we first reported last week. Sen. John McCain has signed ex-AG Charlie Condon and ex-Carroll Campbell CoS Bob McAlister to co-chair his Straight Talk America PAC. Condon was a co-chair of Bush's '00 campaign and McAlister was a Bush consultant. Both have extensive ties to organized social conservative interests in the state. But was Condon, in particular, privy to the smear campaign that tarred McCain's primary campaign that year? A source familiar with the discussions says that Condon was never implicated in the ne'er-doings and that McCain's team vetted Condon's role in that race. They were satisfied, and the courtship began. (Hotline)

  • Laurin Manning's interview with Bill Richarson produced this conclusion: " I think he’ll be one of the prevailing anti-Hillary candidates among the most prominent Democratic contenders."

  • In Charleston, SC The NGA session turned toward, yes, politics, yesterday. Lots of complaints about Congress.

  • Mitt Romney made a funny about the Civil War.

  • House Min Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) will campaign in IA today for Rep. Leonard Boswell (D-IA). The IA GOP yesterday sent out a press release saying that San Francisco Values (whatever they are... gay values? Something else?) don't play in Iowa.

  • Why is Chet Culver's heft an issue in IA?
