This is Michael Cohen and you're listening to the best of Mayor Colpapodcast.

Now that the midterms are behind us and the deck is being reshuffled in Washington,

we're taking a moment to pause for the Thanksgiving holiday and bring you a best of Mayor

Colpapod episode.

I'd also like to thank the entire Mayor Colpapod community for listening to the show

and becoming part of a movement that I believe in some small way helped to stave off the

red wave and ush in a new era where Trump will eventually be in our rearview mirror.

But as long as there is a democracy to protect from radicals, from lunatics, zealots,

maggots, trumplicans and the rest, Mayor Colpapod will be here to give you the news and the

interviews like we do, straight and no chaser.

Once again thanks for listening and without further ado enjoy this insightful anchor interview

with Reed Galen, an independent political strategist and the co-founder of the Lincoln

project.

Galen is a veteran public affairs and political analyst who has been involved in politics

in government and business at the very highest levels.

Galen expertly advises companies in need of high level counsel in the fields of strategic

communications, procurement and legislation.

In addition to his private sector work, Reed has managed several high profile ballot

measure campaigns in California, Texas and Colorado.

And before moving to the private sector, Reed served as deputy campaign manager for John

McCain's presidential campaign and deputy campaign manager for Arnold Schwarzenegger's

successful 2006 re-election campaign.
