Another interesting article from The Fix.

Former Gov. Mitt Romney (R-Mass.) continues to bring on an impressive roster of advisers with significant credibility inside the Beltway — a move aimed at battling Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to a draw among the small but influential chattering class.

Romney has hired Tony Feather, who will serve as a political adviser, and Carl Forti, who will be the campaign’s political director and one of four deputy campaign managers.

Chris Cillizza definitely recognizes Romney for what he is, a serious contender.

The additions of Feather and Forti — coupled with a handful of other recent Romney hires — reveal that the Governor understands the need to play this game. Watch his roster in the coming weeks to see whether he can lure other D.C. bigfoots to his cause.

We’ll see what other big names do join the campaign because I am sure there are more to come.
