Hillary to lean on ad guru who helped Bill Clinton's Global Initiative.
Clinton Relies on Soul-Searching Message Guru
Branding and Messaging Whiz Roy Spence Tapped for Bigger Role in Clinton Campaign

By KATE SNOW and JENNIFER PARKER
Jan. 10, 2008

The Texas advertising guru and branding whiz, who spent most of October on a spiritual soul quest, trying to reconnect with "the heart of America," has been tapped for a bigger role in Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign.

Roy Spence, 60, a longtime friend of the Clintons, is the quirky Austin-based advertising legend who coined the phrase "Don't Mess With Texas," and developed the Southwest Airlines slogan, "You are now free to move about the country."

He was with Clinton at her Chappaqua, N.Y., home yesterday, after she flew in overnight from New Hampshire and met with her team to develop a campaign strategy for the next four weeks of key primaries.

Spence's clients have included Southwest Airlines, Wal-Mart, and BMW, and he's done pro bono work for Bill Clinton's Global Initiative.

5. Sure - all Texas residents are wingnuts

even the ones who do pro bono work for a guy hated above all by Republicans.

You'll notice he charged WalMart for his services, but not Bill.
