It will be interesting to see how Hillary repositions herself after Mark Penn Leaves...
There are two MEDIA WHORE POSITIONS ON THIS: Andrea (wife of Greenspan Corporate Whore) says...Mark Penn is GONE according to Hillary Campaign Staff. BUT...the rest of the WHORE MEDIA WATCHERS say MARK is in the BACKGROUND...but that Hillary HAD TO DITCH HIM...and it remains to be seen who she is listening to.

So...who knows the truth of it given the Media Whores on both sides.

BUT...if Hillary TRULY WANTS TO WIN...let's see how she does "ON HER OWN."

I'll give her that time.....but, that's because I neither am in Barack nor Hillary's Camp. I just want the BEST DEM to WIN...and I believe that for our DEMOCRATIC PROCESS to really WORK OUT...we need to go to BROKERED CONVENTION!

Hey...I just believe in bringing back DEMOCRACY to the PROCESS...whether we win or lose...we need to start HERE with these two Candidates..

Hillary moving PENN out of the way means SHE'S LISTENING....That's good for a FOUNDER OF DLC...to finally need to LISTEN. It's going to take decades...but they are now starting to listen...but it will take many YEARS...before our DEMS really GET IT! It's a start...

Be thankful for small favors?

2. Anyone who thought that he'd now be sitting on a beach somewhere is dumb
Of course he's still going to be with the campaign. You just won't read his name in the paper anymore.

4. All Penn did was buy himself a bigger curtain.
He's still there, it's just harder to see him.

15. Harder to see him?
Best News I have heard all day. What is wrong with his hair BTW?

It looks like someone dropped a diamond in a gob of cotton candy and more than one person has been looking for it.

5. I think it has to be a brokered convention at this point.
When a race is this close and there are so many questions about whether there is really true representation of the populace, I don't think there is any other choice.

Many do not want to hear it, but the question of who would be the most electable is still very much on the table.

Also, the only way I can see that we might get a ticket composed of both of the current candidates is through a brokered convention. I continue to believe that that would be the most powerful ticket and the most likely to see us through the GE.

6. Penn's not out.
He conducted the conference call this morning and said he'd still be playing a strong advisory role. He's still on the campaign, just a different title. She's pretty sure none of us are going to notice.

12. Penn still has his job...just new title....can't even be honest about THAT!
"Hillary moving PENN out of the way means SHE'S LISTENING....That's good for a FOUNDER OF DLC...to finally need to LISTEN. It's going to take decades...but they are now starting to listen...but it will take many YEARS...before our DEMS really GET IT! It's a start...

Very small favors indeed. Penn is still there. Just not officially the top dog. Still on pay roll. Still has Hillary's ear. So what has changed? It is just one more chapter of Hillary bullshit. Saying he is fired, when he is really still there under another title....

Is there anything...Anything...ANYthing...ANYTHING Hillary can be upfront about?

Hillary is listening....and continues to listen....to Penn! Not to us.

13. He hasn't gone anywhere...yet. Hillary has succeded in making him
and his union-busting-lobbying another news cycle. Fire Penn, Hillary.He is pulling your campaign down.
