Andrew Sullivan is the editor of the New Republic who blogs at the Daily Dish. He’s also the author of The Conservative Soul – How We Lost it and How to Get it Back. Sullivan phoned in recently to WINA’s Charlottesville–Right Now to talk about his work.
Gary Nordlinger is the president of the political consulting firm Nordlinger and Associates. He joined Coy Barefoot on the September 25th edition of WINA’s Charlottesville–Right Now to discuss his career, the history of political consulting, and the somewhat negative perception many political observers have of people in his profession.
“Campaign consultants influence the ten to twelve percent of the voters that just don’t pay attention to politics,” says Nordlinger. “They want their information handily condensed, and that is what a political consultant does at least at my end of the business.”
Nordlinger also tells some stories from the campaign trail, and handicaps the 2008 Presidential election. He also gives advice on how to withstand the upcoming onslaught of political ads.
On September 13, the Senior Statesmen of Virginia held a forum on the topic of immigration reform.

Mark McKinnon and Joe Lockhart join Coy Barefoot to discuss Hot Soup.com, a new website for political junkies. McKinnon has been a Senior Campaign Consultant to President Bush and Lockhart was President Clinton’s Press Secretary. “We think there are lots of people in America today that don’t feel any particular party affiliation, that feel like they’ve been shut out of the conversation,” says McKinnon. Hotsoup hopes to open the doors and bring more people to the political table. Each week, the website will feature political debates from five different perspectives, and users will be encouraged to form social networks to carry on the discussion. The site will launch in October.
