Jeff Cohen Quotes

We never had a conversation about which candidate Rick Greenspan liked. I gave him my opinion. I said, 'Steve Alford would be a great candidate.' I gave him my opinions. But it wasn't until recently that we had conversations about who was out there, who was available, who was interested, what our options were, that sort of thing. It hasn't been a very long time.
