Topic: Joe Napolitan


In the News (Sun 29 Nov 09)

  
  Gotham Gazette -- Power To The Professionals
A man named Joe Napolitan, now 71, coined the term "political consultant." Joe, who is still practicing, is best-known for his work on Vice President Hubert Humphrey's 1968 campaign against Richard Nixon; he is credited as the architect of Humphrey's rapid rise in the polls during the last few weeks of the race.
Napolitan was also the general strategist who oversaw America's first intensive television campaign, for Pennsylvania Governor Milton Schapp in the late 1970's.
Joe Napolitan broke ground doing governors races in Hawaii, Puerto Rico and even Alaska.

 Political consulting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In California in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, Whitaker and Baxter established and grew the first true consulting firm, Campaigns, Inc. However, political consulting blossomed with the increasing use of television advertising for campaign communications in the 1960s.
It was in that period that Joe Napolitan claims to have become the first person to describe himself as a political consultant (Perlmutter, ed.
In the subsequent years, political consulting has grown in importance and influence and extended its reach to campaigns at all levels of government in the United States, and beyond.

Napolitan, for one, did not always have a golden touch.
In 1974 Napolitan, recruited through the intermediary of the French centrist, Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber, conducted Valéry Giscard d'Estaing's campaign for the French presidency in the greatest of secrecy.
In his view, both of them were ignorant of the terrain and had been brought in only so the candidates could boast of having US consultants.

When Rep. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.) took the first swipes at former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean and the leftward shuffle of other candidates, he got heat for threatening to split the party.
As Joe Napolitan, still one of the smartest people in politics, once said to me: “You don’t get to play in the World Series unless you’ve won the pennant.” Lieberman is portraying his opponents as being too liberal, too willing to tax the middle class or too squishy on national defense.
One could certainly argue he’ll be harder for Karl Rove’s troops to brand a liberal than any other candidate, with the possible exception of Clark.
