Giuliani Hires Rapid Response Director

Ex-NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani is adding a rapid response veteran to his campaign staff. Tom O'Brien was the dep. research director at the NRCC in the '02 cycle, part of a team that the Hotline said at the time "ran circles" around Democrats. Most recently, O'Brian was the dep. comm. dir. of the MTA in NY. O'Brien took a law degree from Fordham and has taught American history.
