Hillary Clinton looks to President Obama digital alums
Apparently, two of President Barack Obama’s 2012 digital masterminds are among the leading contenders for top technology jobs in Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign-in-waiting.
Teddy Goff, who ran the day-to-day digital shop for President Obama, and Andrew Bleeker, an online advertising guru from the President’s reelection effort in Chicago (IL), are the most frequently named candidates for the role of Clinton’s chief digital strategist, a job that most likely means a prime seat in the inner campaign cabinet. The list of potential senior Clinton tech hires also includes more than a dozen specialists with ties to the Obama White House, Clinton’s 2008 presidential bid, Democratic congressional campaign offices and the outside groups and firms that supply the party with online infrastructure. No Clinton campaign job offers have been made public yet. But Democratic operatives who wrote the playbook on how best to fold technology into a presidential run say it’s only a matter of time before the initial hires are on the clock.
