Great talk with Dawn Riley, Former Mitch McConnell DC staffer, and George W. Bush staffer on why she left the Republican Party and has become a registered Independent. She worked for the most powerful Senate Republican first, and then was called back to DC to work for George W. Bush. Even before our conversation got to two great calls: one from another former McConnell staffer, and the other from another former Republican, Dawn was already talking about the "Big Tent" and the reasons why she so passionately had to put her country before her party. A famous quote on an album from Dawn and your Co-Host\'s college days comes to mind...She brings all her equipment on the bus, and you can not ($#%^) with this band. Credit Violent Femmes Live Album.
