Rules of the Campaign Trail

Keep it simple

Memphis, TN -- April 12, 2006 Memphis, TN  --  When Tom Guleff , Republican candidate for the 9th Congression al seat, broke from the pack and stood up and stated, "Don't give money to anyone running for the District 9, US Congression al race. Not one penny. This city has seen enough corruption this year to last a lifetime,” you would have thought the sky was f al ling.

 “It’s funny how everybody says I can’t when it comes to this, but they have no problem promising the “I can” when getting elected. “We don’t see the big de al in our position, we’ve been doing this since January,” says Tom.

Tom states that he person al ly has tried to live by a few guide posts and he thinks they translate well to the campaign road.  “I am sure most campaign managers tell their candidates not to worry, just keep the money flowing. Here’s how to make the transition from a “funnel money in and send favors out” model to keeping it clean and simple. 

    1. Be the Leader

    2. Brainstorm

    3. Make a plan and work it

    4. Organize like the devil

    5. Ask questions and dig deep

    6. Engage people with courage

    7. Include people like they are your family

    8. Work harder than anyone on your campaign

    9. Don't be too serious, you're not that important

    10. Forget the money.
