Campaign Manager Sasso was an aide to Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis; Anne Wexler, a White House advisor to Jimmy Carter, will be Ferraro's senior political counselor. Along with Mondale's high command, Ferraro's staff will decide how she can campaign most effectively and keep the popular good will from fading.
