Folks, the spokesman’s spokesman has resigned his post in Rep. Dennis Rehberg’s office.
Brad Keena, the fifty-something slickster who once worked for Rep. Steve Largent, yes the former NFL football player, and who had a penchant for pissing off reporters, announced today with much fan fare that he is leaving the Rehberg mega machine. (Side note: who pitches their own resignation letter?)
AP reported Keena as having said he’s leaving to "pursue serving a growing portfolio of clients in need of my communications expertise."
It’s that same “expertise” that landed Keena’s ass in hot water after he got caught peddling dirt on Conrad Burns, yes, and Max Baucus. It was this little 2003 doozy that landed Keena a seat on the bench, clearing the way for Mini Me to take the helm as de facto press secretary. more
Ever since the above article and a not-so steller performance managing the Drunk Rehberg story, Keena rarely spoke for Rehberg on anything of substance – Min Me does all that, still.
It makes you wonder who Mini Me will get to do all the faxing and e-mail distribution now that Keena is gone….
