Doug Bailey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Doug Bailey is "a legendary Republican consultant" and founder of The Hotline[1] and one of the four co-founders of the political reform movement Unity08.[2] He was seeking to start a new centrist party for the 2008 presidential election to try to unite the country. He appeared on The Colbert Report to promote his cause.

In January of 2008, Bailey and fellow Unity08 co-founder Gerald Rafshoon left that organization to launch a national effort to draft New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to run for president as an independent candidate.[3]
