Joe Trippi
from Christopher Lydon Interviews (with Enclosures)
"I'm a Cortez guy," Joe Trippi roared at the end of our conversation in the corner office of Howard Dean's headquarters in Burlington, Vt. As in: Hernando Cortez, the Conquistador who faced the Aztec hordes five centuries ago with just 400 Spanish troops at his side, and burned his own boats on the beach in case his compatriots thought of leaving prematurely. Horses, gunpowder and steel made all the difference for Cortez. The Trippi difference in the Democratic nomination fight has been the Internet.
