EXCERPT:
MESSINA: "I mean, if you think about, Jen, in politics you have three things: you have time, you have money, and you have volunteers. And the one thing of those three you can’t go get more of is time. And so there’s really difficult decisions being made in Wilmington right now about what you do with her time, what you do with the surrogates time. You know, there’s competing things, the press team wants her on these TV interviews, the fundraising team wants her to do one more big event in X city. The battleground states are saying, 'We’ve gotta have her three more times in Michigan.' And so, you know, making those decisions becomes the most important thing. It’s why you see these campaign people on TV and they look absolutely exhausted, because everyone is telling them they're a band of idiots and they should do it their way, and they have to make a really, really difficult decisions."
