Freshman Congressman Ridiculed for Failure to Hire Insiders

http://www.rollcall.com/news/-201975-1.html

Fark highlighted this guy as an idiot for his failure to hire a connected insider as his Congressional chief of staff and instead hiring a conservative talk radio host. I think he's looking pretty darn smart. Maybe there ought to be some turnover in the smartass insider hangers-on. Maybe some of these geniuses could benefit from 99 weeks of unemployment about right now. I'm just sayin'...

Right on, Jim.

He may be a Freshman Congressman but he's smart enough to know better than to hire ...... any friends of his potential enemies.

I don't think I have ever seen a new Manager, Boss, etc., hired from the "outside" that didn't bring a few of his friends with him that he knew he could trust and/or would be loyal to him.
