yeah, this is what I suggested St=art say: We’re really excited for Beau to grow his work in the Whist=e Blower group. It’s a natural continuation of what he did as AG, an= is something he’s already been working on since he joined the firm =n January. It doesn’t change anything for him politically - I think =e’d make an excellent Governor.

Agreed, with t=e caveat that Stuart knows what to say re potential campaign. If you guys =re confident then so am I.

And just as I s=nd that previous email, here comes this to me. I see a few options:
1. No response. Starkey’s article then says something about =ldquo;no indication what this means for 2016, Biden campaign didn’t =espond to inquiries.”

2. I respond, "Jon, =he expanded role in the Whistle Blower group doesn’t change anything=” And then ignore his follow up.

3. I see if he=rsquo;ll go on background and see if he’ll say, “a person clos= to the Biden campaign says…” and make the case that this is =erfectly in line with what Beau did as AG, continuation of the work, etc.&=bsp;

I like opti=n two the best. I’m comfortable with option three, but don’t t=ink I’m the best person to do it (Stuart would be, or maybe Bart). O=tion one is by far the easiest, but I like where we’re at now, and f=eding the rumor mill by not responding may only put more pressure on us. A=fourth option may be an amalgam of two and three.

Thoughts?
