BOSTON -- Massachusetts gubernatorial candidate Robert Reich is getting some help from friends of New England's most famous family.
Former senior adviser to Sen. Ted Kennedy, Nick Littlefield, is a special adviser, The Boston Herald reported. Former Kennedy Chief of Staff David Burke heads Reich's organization efforts. Kennedy's old guru Bob Shrum will handle Reich's advertising. The former secretary of labor has disproven prognosticators who said he would rely exclusively on academics. Reich took a job as professor at Brandeis University after leaving President Clinton's cabinet. (by The Associated Press)
