Guess who ended up as David Patterson's Campaign Manager for his Lt. Governor run (coronation)?
YES, you guessed it: LUTHER SMITH. The former chief-of -staff to C.Viriginia Fields ( ex-Manhattan Beep ) was last seen working on Freddie Ferrer's Mayoral campaign, as a Special-Assistant to the candidate himself (post-primary). This likeable, hard-working and competent guy, was rumored to have hooked up with Bill Lynch's consulting firm. From where we stand at this moment in time, it looks like a 'piece of cake " for Luther. Score one for the nice-guys.
Luther Smith a nice guy? I suppose if you
own a bar, or are a landlord, he may be
nice to you. To constituents - he's a
nightmare (unless you ponied up money
for Fields or were a Dem. club hack).
He's one reason why
C. V. Fields tanked.
