Wow. Deputy Field Director from yesterday’s release became “Volunteered on Obama’s campaign” and “Has never been paid for political work” in the Trib story on Felicia Shallow Davis.

It’s pretty clear that Eisendrath has hired a chef, (albeit a very good chef) to manage his campaign. He is every bit as ridiculous as Alan Keyes was, though for different reasons. Keyes was ideologically extreme and a little bit nutty. Eisendrath is just incredibly inept. It’s just too bad that he’s too small time to be noticed by Leno or Letterman.
