An update on the PAC. Had a good meeting with Steve, Schrum, Greg, Alex and McGrail last Friday. Because of the time constraints, I think this will be a softer launch than I had hoped. Steve is making sure we do this right - not quick, but right. I think that’s fine, but made clear to him on Friday the longer we wait the less we raise in 2015.

Once we get the full approval, we will launch a website and I’ll get on the phone to the attached list. Ask if for 5k or 10k per couple. Will drive folks to an event in DC in January (Steve thinks the crunch to get an event in December is too much, and with all the holiday parties, it’ll look to cute).

A smaller subset of this list will be asked to commit to writing 10k (5 x 2k checks most likely) to candidates of the VP’s choosing. That’s how we’ll separate our core group from the larger masses.

Unlikely that we’ll take PAC or lobbyist money before the DNC does. I was wrong last week when I said the DNC is taking PAC money - it’s the convention (which is also called the DNCC, thus my confusion).

I feel it is important we get this fully resolved on Tuesday, December 1st, which is when Steve said the VP will have lunch with POTUS. This would be where he asks for use of the OFA list. If this project goes much beyond Wednesday or Thursday of next week, it becomes very hard to get $500,000 in the door in 2015.

Hope you guys have a safe flight and a great trip! Say hi to Ambassador Phillips for me. Happy Thanksgiving!

> Gentlemen - I’ve attached what I think should be the first 131 calls. If there’s anyone you want to strike immediately, let me know. I left the lobbyists on here but recognize we likely won’t get them until the early spring. Happy to add more. I would like to submit these to Bauer as soon as possible, knowing it will take his team a bit of time to get through as many as this.
