From Sunday's Plain Dealer in a story dealing with democrats becoming lobbyists:

Several lobbying firms recruited Sarah Briggs, a respected Democratic Statehouse political operative.
Briggs, who served as political director for the Ohio House Democratic Caucus in 2004 and 2006, starts this week as director of government affairs for the law firm headed by Lee Smith.
Smith, a Democrat, also is a generous contributor to Republicans and earned thousands in legal work through former Republican Attorney General Jim Petro's office.
Smith's firm also is affiliated with Jon Allison, a Republican lobbyist who was chief of staff to former Gov. Bob Taft.
Allison said firms need political diversity to be successful, especially since the GOP still rules the legislature.
"Whether a client wants to get a bill into law or to win a contract with an agency and get it approved by the controlling board, you will have to deal with divided government to get it over the finish line," he said.

Sarah's photo was also in the paper along with some other pretender lobbyists who are trying to cash in on their names.
