Joe Napolitan’s “100 things I have learned in 30 years as a political consultant”
In 1989, media maven David Garth gave me a dog-eared copy of Joseph Napolitan’s legendary paper “100 things I have learned in 30 years as a political consultant”. For David Garth to recommend somebody else’s work was a great compliment, and in Napolitan’s case, rightly so. Even now, more than twenty years later, his observations are still relevant and his insights often spot on. That’s why, over the course of the coming months, I will publish Napolitan’s lessons here as a tribute to this great man.
