Deaver Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mike: Charles Wallen passed on a suggestion from the President that I contact you about my Senate candidacy. Naturally, I would be pleased to have whatever advice and cooperation that you and the President's staff can provide, but I will fully understand that whatever action you take will be based on your perception of what is in the nation's best interest. I would like to think I can be a much better Senator than Sam Hayakawa, Barry Goldwater, Jr., or the President's daughter, but, most importantly, I think I can give you better assurance of defeating Jerry Brown and retaining the seat in Republican hands than any of the other candidates. Some polling data and several of my basic campaign memos are enclosed for your reference, and I will keep you advised as the campaign progresses. In the meantime, almost everything you're doing looks great so far. I intend to help you in every way I can regardless of what happens in the Senate race. Sincerely, PAUL N. McCLOSKEY, JR.

Also enclosed is my list of legislative priorities for early 1981 and some recent J?Olling data which may be of interest. The oath of office for rrembership on this incredibly-significant new entry on the California rolitical scene, of which you are Chairman, is as follows: "We think Pete McCloskey will make a fine U.S. Senator, and that he can defeat any candidate the DErrocrats can put up in 1982, particularly including Governor Jerry Brown. We think Pete should have every chance to explore the J?OSsibilities of a 1982 Senate race, and if, in late 1981, it appears he can win a Republican prirrary, we intend to SUpp'.)rt him. 11 (W2 are also free, as individuals, to switch to some other Senate candidate if, in our individual opinion in Decffilber, 1981, McCloskey appears to have little chance of winning a Republican nomination, or if he fails to rreasure up to our standards of excellence in some other way.) I will send you additional names from time to time, and hope you and the other conmittee m:mbers will not hesitate to beguile a few of your own CEO friends into joining this 'WOrthy effort.
