I’m posting this from my Blackberry, so pardon any formatting issues.  But I have had a few people today tell me that a good friend of the FlashReport, Bill Christiansen, is coming onboard in the coming days at the Director of the coordinated State GOP Victory ’06 program.  This is an important position as Bill will have the primary responsibility of working with all of the players involved in this cycle’s elections — The Governor’s campaign, the downticket candidate campaigns, any party-endorsed ballot measure campaigns, Senate and Assembly GOP campaigns, the RNC, NRSC, NRCC and all of the GOP infrastructure (State Party, County Committees, Vol Orgs,etc) – and getting everyone marching in the same direction.  A Herculean task to be sure, but Bill will have a lot of help. 

Bill brings to the table a lot of relevant experience to help him — most notably his two most recent political jobs — he is fresh off of a multi-year stint as Executive Director of the Arizona State Republican Party, and before that he was Executive Director of the Orange County GOP for the better part of a decade.

Bill brings a lot of strengths to the table, incuding his political acumen and organizational skills — but the one thing he brings to the position in ample supply is his strong inter-personal skills.  Bill is great at working with anyone towards a common goal.

This is a great hire, and I look forward to working with Bill on his new more-than-full-time endeavor!
