Cyrus Krohn Quote

"I've worked with the Hillary Clinton campaign. I've worked with the Barack Obama campaign. But in reality, I was spending a disproportionate amount of time helping the other team. One day I said to myself, "If I'm going to be a political operative in what is really a politically agnostic job, I should be a political operative for the party that I hold true to my heart." — Washington Post
