Nugen has experience working on conventions, serving as deputy chief operating officer for the 2000 convention in Los Angeles and lending a hand in Boston in 2004 from his perch as deputy national field director at the DNC, a post he assumed after working on Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman's failed bid. Nugen rose through the ranks at the DNC, ultimately becoming director of the chairman's office. He turned down a job helping to run the convention from the DNC side to work for the Obama campaign...

...negative attack ad that accuses the Illinois Senator of shirking his Senate oversight responsibilities on Afghanistan and voting against a funding bill for troops in Iraq. (Obama's vote was a protest against the war policy, not a rejection of the troops.) And McCain surrogate Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman appeared on Fox News Sunday to hammer Obama's past opposition to the current military effort in Iraq.
