...presidential campaigns. "I'm looking forward to working with the undergraduates at Harvard," Mele said. "Their observations on technology and politics are going to be insightful given that they are digital natives." Alex Castellanos, who served as a senior strategist for the presidential campaign of former Mass. Gov.

As a competitor, the former Massachusetts governor clearly irritated McCain, but observers say the two now get along famously, with one insider terming them "alpha males" who have moved past their earlier conflicts.
