now our next guest might not agree with that gentle kind of strategy she's got a
more conciliatory book her name is mary beth's mesquite and she's written
politically connected
level essence in connecting for today's politicians
ever wanted brain
mary beth fotolia
et dot
alright says he would have what does this mean politically tonight
well hypnotic called the connector indian actually seemed like
it with the business painful deprived went after patrick because without what
politician don't contribute int connect cadet
golf guild says okay i'm a little skeptical about us and so we'll have a
phone interview
so if you tell me what why you think there's something about
well yeah heuristic
what i he happening if in fact
gautam diametrically the republican party and the democrats are
diametrically opposed
but what happened
domestic novak polytechnic if the way they did that happen director your
figure but what's happening today if in fact i think if you can work in terms of
the emotional
emotionally-charged nature of the
partisan politics
neither yelling at the precedent that they're doing and i just don't think
that a lot of good thing to happen now understand that if you're very much for
your prompt you're not going to vote on fabric somebody else wants
but
but at the end of the day
if you really hurting the people that these builder being passed or and and
leaving impact begin but laid-back connecting with each other and in kop
reconnecting didn't corroborate
at part of it
and conflict
i mean i would get fired for doing some of the things that politicians do
you may like so we'll see you know that you live after the president's and uh...
i guess that i get that fight
you know the of course the name of a further publishes this month
and so this is a really about emotions as much as it is about
whose fame and if insurance companies paying the republicans whether they're
going to try to kill insurance reform and so that's part of the ball you but i
won't tell you about another part of it too which is
agenda political strategy up
uh... i don't think the way to do it is to try to connect to the other side
uh... i believe in my civil service who women
show that went in and get it on sun acting
status
that's my philosophy who are leaving their maturity they have a right before
well articulate and i'd
i've been involved in politics for many many years and negative campaigning work
and never negative campaigning works because it get people's attention and
there's no doubt about that
but i_d_ evoking specifically talking about what
happening and government right now if they are connected to come a little bit
better
i don't think the hard-hitting african-american happening differently
than they're happening right now
i think the group you guiding that big big negative felt the how did you got it
dot com adam but i think we've reached a point where nothing alps glad you're
going to happen but continuing
on that path
i think and not to be parliament how do you know about it but i think if i were
actually a little bit more positive morphing might get that more bipartisan
politics even though that might be pollyanna nfl
yeah mode that mine pant legs i just looked at the holes in the connectors
rival bob
does that all the win elections yet so you have a very good point right and he
connects with the american people bill clinton was very famous for that needed
a great job with it
et cetera but when it comes so running the country or bombers billing reaching
out please
is connected
and uh... that has in the work for
actually but what he did
andes eve anybody starting pitted change it to a little bit instead he delegated
connected
when he got into office when he when he got there when he speaking point you've
connected with you know if you know in a very strong way much less likely candid
but when he gets into government delegate the bipartisanship and i would
think that he talked about jakarta and publication
who are not going to connecting and took him getting involved if you need to the
committee
you know i think i would answer if you can get lumped the ban but he couldn't
just came up with health care bill through item maybe working with the
competition that i was just an academic i_q_ go do it and it then embroiled in
the private and public entire careers and both i think the fed and heat
dominated the connecting so he didn't do what he thought he was going to do you
know he thought somebody ought to be able to get and obvious without having
at work
mera beth it's not that i don't love you distillery payton p_m_ item over to the
syrup to watch the super bowl to do this to do that you tried all that connecting
stuff
and fathers in stone care about that they they care about their own acts and
so
you have the threaten their seat and if they think they'll lose their seat that
all the sudden de la wanna connect with you a lot more
the excitement this time of suspects but
but oh bombers used too many back connecting farris and i thought it up
connecting over the head with a stick
well i think how did that is
it the definition of what connecting it etc none of the beloit wi five direct
watch that people
people what do you need what do you what they want to understand i want
and finding some middle ground which they
which
you know now they're starting to talk about it but it's almost she waited
probably not going to happen
but if you would have started talking about that in the beginning but they
don't believe he did it ability pete keaton ludwig service to attend then he
pulled over to him
than empty that the leaders of the house and the senate
to go ahead and put the thrown together vic eliminated anything that the
republican might have won if not now and uh... since that's holding out sir
but i i love and yes much love and it's okay we have a the spirit of that but
they put a hundred and fifty republican amendments of the senate bill
what what they needed to put a hundred fifty one but that now memory reseller
bombings if i will let an old core of ours have the final word here
represent my the w take them out of a lot of good contact
they will do
