The Spitzer campaign has brought Luther Smith, a former top aide to Virginia Fields, abord to manage David Paterson's separate-but-not-really campaign, a friendly Rock Hackshaw reports.
Luther may be a nice guy, pleasant, intelligent, competent ... and all the other adjectives used by others... but have you known Luther to work recently on a winning campaign?? Freddy '01, Kerry, and Virginia.
Congrats to Luther, although does David even need a manager for a race that doesn't exist?
Luther is a top notch political operative. Cognizant of all issues and all facets of a campaign. Paterson is lucky to have him.
Congrats Luther.
Considering the way the press is beating David up, he can use all the help he can get.
Perhaps Luther will bring some clarity to this enterprise of the absurd.
Luther Smith is solid, smart, cool under pressure, and a pleasure to work with. Paterson and Spitzer are lucky to have him.
Comsider who Luther Smith worked for and you'll understand why it's only Democratic hacks that are giving him the thumbs up.
When he worked for Fields, he was arrogant and deceitful. Another reason to not vote for Spitzer.

THAT'S A LIE >
LUTHER SMITH IS ONE HELL OF A NICE GUY.
I wish you NY Republicans would stop player-hating.
Who let Virginia on the board? Knowing that Luther Smith is a hack does not make one a Republican.
Luther Smith is quality. Period. All detractors must just be player haters.
Virginia, go play with Photoshop.
Luther rules! He not only has a great mind, he's funny as hell. He is someone who is going places. He's also nice to look at.
My experiences with Luther were always pleasant. He seems to be a very nice, competent person. Congrats.
Luther may be a nice guy, pleasant, intelligent, competent ... and all the other adjectives used by others... but have you known Luther to work recently on a winning campaign?? Freddy '01, Kerry, and Virginia.
Well he can't lose this one.
4:58 - who has won any race of significance as a Dem lately?
Luther is a shining star. Anyone who detracts has an ax and in my mind is a small person.
And no, I'm not related to the man, nor am I Luther.
WORD IS THAT LUTHER ISN'T TOO HAPPY ABOUT THIS STORY.
PATERSON FINALLY HAS A STAFF MEMBER WHO IS SMART and brings credibility to the campaign.
Word was that Haslip was coming back for the 8th time....
