Thanks for your voice mail message. We are in good shape. Phil Cassidy
has been talking with each speaker's scheduler about tentative times and asking them to pencil in slots, pending an OK from Ken on our strategy. So discussions have been happening. Here's where we are with the penciled schedule: 8:00 Evans--tentative agreement 8:30 Lindsey--tentative agreement 9:00 Abraham---accepted but asking for slot at 10 or later 9:30 Whitman--tentative agreement, but we may move her to 9:00 if Abraham has to go in later slot 10:00 Break 10:15 Open Slot 10:45 Greenspan--tentative agreement and he is NOT asking that press attend 11:15 Open Slot, but we could lengthen time for Greenspan if needed Unresolved invites: POTUS, Rumsfeld, and Powell. Phil is going to hold off further calls pending a report on Ken's calls to Card, Powell and Rumsfeld. He does need to distribute an agenda on Tuesday and would like to lock in this schedule soon thereafter. For the Tuesday agenda, he is going to list (without time slots) the speakers from whom we have acceptances and list invitees. So if we can get to Phil the results of Ken's call to include in the Tuesday agenda, that would be great. He will rework/change the above schedule in light of what we hear on the outstanding invites. O'Neill, at the moment, cannot do the 22nd. Phil is talking to his scheduler about attendance on the evening of the 21st, which looks promising. The discussion is centered on his serving as a backup for POTUS. Also, we have heard nothing from Zoellick and we are not calling to push the invite.
