Now he and six of his former campaign managers are taking the course. “I need to learn how to organize in the larger cities, that’s where I lost it and where I need the help,” Upson said. “You’ve got to start early, this can’t hurt me and it might help.” “My interests are mainly selfish,” Rodriquez said. “Tm out for my own purpose. I hope it will teach me the skills I need to be a better candi date.” The top aides to House Minority Leader Gerald F. Stevens; Senate Minority Leader Lewis Rome and former state Environmental Com missioner Dan Lufkin also are enrolled —~ not only to hone their political skills but to recruit workers for their bosses’ gubernatorial cam paigns.
