Jason Roe, formerly the Washington, D.C. "Beltway" Correspondent for this website, has just 
shared with me that he has taken on a new challenge in life — he is leaving his position of Chief of Staff to Florida Congressman Tom Feeney (one of the most articulate, conservative leaders among House GOPers) to assume new responsibilities as the Deputy Campaign Manager for the Mitt Romney for President campaign.
This is great news for Jason, of course, as it represents yet another opportunity (his career has been full of them) to expand his horizons, and learn new things. It is also great news for Governor Romney. I have known Jason for a lot of years now, and seldom do you meet someone who is able to blend strong moral character, commitment to principle, and political sophistication the way that he does.
The other winner in this process is… California! Jason spent many years out here, and, in fact, is a former Executive Director of the San Diego County Republican Party. He also served, for years, as the Chief of Staff to former California Congressman Jim Rogan (who is now a Superior Court Judge in Orange County, and has been nominated by President Bush to serve as a Federal Judge).
When we "stood up" this website, Jason came onboard as one of our inaugural bloggers, and while he has since moved on, we still consider him part of the FlashReport family, and are very excited for his new opportunity!
Congratulations, Jason!
