News : Resolute Consulting Executive Talks Veepstakes on Chicago Tonight
John McGovern appears on WTTW expert panel
CHICAGO - Resolute Consulting Executive Vice President John McGovern recently appeared on WTTW’s Chicago Tonight to offer his insight on who presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney may pick to join him on the ticket.
In the 15-minute segment, John called the VP selection process a game of “hide and seek.”
“The Romney campaign is doing everything it can to keep this decision secret,” said McGovern. “I think you’ll see a lot of people’s schedules watched closely, hotel ballrooms will be watched closely, backs of kitchens…it’s one of those game that goes on.”
John appeared alongside University of Chicago Political Science Professor William Howell and Thom Serafin, CEO of Serafin & Associates, Inc.
A lawyer by training, John leads Resolute’s corporate, financial and legal communications practice, helping clients design and implement strategies in a number of areas including crisis management and brand protection, complex litigation and bankruptcy cases, and mergers and acquisitions. He previously served as a senior advisor to J. Dennis Hastert, former Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.
