After spending most of this year as a senior advisor to John McCain's presidential campaign, Charlie Black is going home to K Street and BKSH & Associates, the firm he co-founded. Black, who severed his ties with the firm during the campaign to avoid conflicts, says he'll be in the office this week getting up to speed.
Black says, "I'm too young to retire and I am happy to have the opportunity to return to my old firm." Although he briefly toyed with other job options, Black says that he opted to return to BKSH in part because that's where he has "a great group of friends."
Meanwhile, McCain campaign manager Rick Davis, who took a leave from his firm Davis Manafort, is already back at work at his old perch, which in recent years has included lucrative foreign consulting work for wealthy businessmen and politicians in the Ukraine and Montenegro.
