The man who ran President Obama’s campaign spoke publicly for the first time since Election Day, declaring that he probably won’t return to Obama’s White House, where he worked for two years before the 2012 race began. “I’m gonna go to Italy and hang out,” Messina told Politico’s Mike Allen onstage at a breakfast event hosted by Politico in downtown Washington, D.C., divulging plans for a month-long vacation. “The one thing I know is that I want to be involved in some way helping this president move his agenda forward, and that’s what I’ll do, but here’s the truth. I’ve been going at this now for five years,” Messina said. “I’ve taken one week vacation in five years, and so it is time to restore my energy. the president and I were joking recently about how bad I look, and it is time to take a vacation.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
