HOWARD WOLFSON IS MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU: Howard Wolfson was the mean, lying communications director for Hillary Clinton’s 2008 campaign and was known to some as “the most charmless human being on the planet.” Well guess what, now he’s Deputy Mayor of New York City so BACK OFF. [Ben Smith]

But finally it looks like a little ray of lucky light is shining on our Wolfie: he got himself a job! After months of volunteering, [...]
