Democrat functionary Howard Wolfson will be joining Mayor Mike’s administration as a senior adviser. According to the Times:
“… [he] will assume the newly created position of counselor to the mayor, focusing on communications and policy … A person close to the mayor said Mr. Wolfson would play “a key role in developing policies and lead in selling them.” He is likely to focus on promoting national issues like gun control and immigration reform, a priority for Mr. Bloomberg …”
I think Bloombergs’ problem is that it isn’t a national issue. It’s his issue and he wants to make it a national one.
I suspect it will be Wolfson’s job to do just that.
