Josh -
Just landed in Dubai. I haven't talked to Steve or Greg about this even once let alone daily and I don't know who Lopach, Val ( aunt Val?) are or what the DS is. I've only spoken to Dad and he's said he very much wants to do this. I'll call him again today to make sure I'm not missing something.

I'm sure Steve you and Greg talk daily with Lopach and Val at the DS. If I'm going to be running the PAC, I would like to be a part of those conversations with them about what they envision him doing on behalf of their candidates. We should think about how we can generate some press around this potential relationship with the DSCC. We need to figure out the list transfer and get content written for the website. He should stop signing emails for the committees as well.
