A Love Story From the Campaign Trail

Meet campaign aide Jamie Fleet, 28.
His old boss was Jonathan Saidel, the former City Controller who was going to run for mayor until U.S. Rep. Bob Brady got into the race, squeezing Saidel out. Fleet, without a missing a beat, left the Saidel campaign for the Brady one.

Meet spokeswoman Kate Philips, 33.
Her old boss was Gov. Rendell, who last February kindly granted her a leave from Harrisburg so she could handle reporter inquiries for the Brady campaign.
Now meet Jamie Fleet and Kate Philips - a couple soon to be wed.

Philips spilled the beans earlier today, showing reporters (including the Inquirer's Harrisburg-based Angela Couloumbis) the ring that Fleet gave her last night after dinner at Le Bec Fin.
Philips noted that Brady took credit for getting the pair together.
She also said that Brady called their match the only good thing to come of his mayoral campaign.
