National Journal's Under the Influence

Monday, January 26, 2009 9:48 AM

With the creation of Organizing for America, President Obama has deployed his own lobbying tools in an effort to build grassroots support in Congress for his agenda.

The group is housed at the Democratic National Committee and is the keeper of Obama's e-mail list of supporters, which reportedly contains 13 million addresses. A number of lobbyists in D.C. wondered to me how the Obama administration would use the list and whether it might try to bypass K Street. National Journal will be paying close attention to how Organizing for America evolves.

On Friday, David Plouffe, who was Obama's campaign manager, announced that Mitch Stewart would be the executive director of the organization.

Stewart served as director of the Iowa caucus, Indiana state director and Virginia state director for the Obama campaign. Before joining Obama's camp, he was the coordinated campaign manager for the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party in Minnesota in 2006. In 2004, Stewart served as former South Dakota Democrat Sen. Tom Daschle's field director. He was also a regional field director in Iowa for former Sen. John Edwards, D-NC., during his presidential bid in 2004.

Plouffe and Stewart sent out this video to supporters.

Are you sure Seinfeld wasn't kidding about the Presbyterians? He is a comedian, after all, and that sounds like a mediocre joke at worst.
