Why is Mark Penn pontificating as a pundit in David Gregory's show
Now he is saying nice things about Obama after he savaged him in the primaries. :mad:

1. If Gregory can pass himself off as a journalist
then Penn can be a pundit. Anything goes in the MSM.

8. My guess is that Welch wants certain trusted 'Dems' to continue to be the 'voice' of the party
so he can keep HIS fascist foot on our neck.

2. Damn good question...
He ran perhaps the WORST cammpaign EVER... worse than McCain. This is not a reflection on Hillary Clinton, it's the messaging of the campaign.

5. Because the only thing david gregory's imagination
can come up with, on Nov5, 2008, is to interview is mark "being human is overrated", penn.

If nobody watched gregory would he still have a show?

6. McCain's campaign was probably 100 times worst than Clinton's
Penn had more to screw up certainly because Hillary was in such a superior position but don't think for a moment that McCain's debacle was anything short of remarkably bad and empty.

Hell, when Phalin actually improves your chances then you know you need to scratch the whole idea.
Arizona must be the world's capital of pity sex because if McCain can't run better than that, his time in Congress has been the political equivalent. They must just feel bad for him and say what the heck.
