Is a picture worth a thousands words?

Day 170 – If so, this picture is worth the thousands words I would have written today.

A sucky E-Day

Day 169 – Whew…I’m tired, yet cannot sleep. I just got back from a drinking session with some reporter friends. I leave for San Francisco in just a few hours to lay out the first cornerstones for our new office there. I’m so excited. It is the heart of technology, a new side of politics, [...]

Be a Man and Vote

Day Whatever – This will be the first post of this Man Project that I publish out of order. I have posts written for nearly every day over the past 10 days, but honestly, this has been the busiest two weeks of my career. The presidential circus came to town the same day the SC [...]

Save time with The Email Game

Day 167 – Another short blog. We are in Charleston today for the Southern Republican Leadership Conference and presidential debate. The city is buzzing with reporters and political action. There ain’t a whole lot better than Charleston and politics. We are having a blast. My buddy and chief competitor Vincent Harris is in town, and [...]

Pub Politics goes green

Day 166 – This week’s conservation episode was really refreshing. Phil is a good friend of mine, and he’s pretty much the closest thing to a Republican you can find in a Democratic operative (sorry Phil). He hunts, he fishes, he likes good beer and country. He’s a rather conservative fellow, as are many Democrats [...]

Stuck in Charleston for the rest of my days

Day 165 – This week has been busy for me. Either doing interviews, or traveling for clients had me bogged down. It was madness. One day, I got over 100 emails in an hour.  Getting to Charleston for the debate was like heaven. Looking back at this week, I’ve gotten a lot done. Either being [...]

Take Pinterest back from the ladies

Day 164 – Have ever surfed the web, come across something badass that you want to remember, but had nowhere to store it? The solution used to be bookmarks, but no one ever goes back to those things. Pinterest is the solution. Pinterest is a new website and app that I’ve been enjoying lately. And [...]

Don’t screw up the Guinness pour

Day 163- I’m sitting in a hotel bar, watching important people walk by and waiting for the Myrtle Beach presidential debate to begin. My homies and I are sitting here drinking various alcoholic beverages. Michael Rentiers and I are enjoying a nice Guinness. Unfortunately, they are from a bottle. They are good, but let’s all [...]

A life of personal freedom

Day 162 – What is that you want from life? In the end, that is the ultimate question. I’m not talking about that crazy question “how do you want people to remember you after you die?” I’ll ask that one again later. I’m talking about this question: how do you want to live today? I’ve [...]

A strange Pub Politics

Day 161 – What a strange Pub Politics. While shooting a great episode with SC Senator Tom Davis, CNN reporter Peter Hamby and blogger Logan Smith, my face suddenly appeared on the TV screen above our heads. Pretty neat stuff. Check out this episode, one of the bests we’ve ever done.

Our first national TV hit

Day 160 – Today provided a first for the Donehue Direct team. You never know what’s going to happen when you wake up in the morning. I certainly didn’t expect our first big national TV hit.
