"We'll deal with Penn after TX and OH": Big shakeup coming in Clinton campaign?

It looks like they're about to step on their own 'success' narrative:

Why are you paying so much money to a guy that's doing nothing but licking stamps?" MSNBC's Joe Scarborough asked jokingly.

"People ought to quit talking to the press," McAuliffe said, before adding, "When we get through with Texas and Ohio, I'll go talk to Maggie Williams, our campaign manager, about that."

-snip-

On Monday night, on Tucker, Rep. Stephanie Tubbs-Jones, a Clinton supporter, offered a similar non-endorsement for the campaign's chief strategist.

"I'm not worried about Mark Penn, she said. "We'll deal with him later."

2. Thats a scary comment
The "We'll deal with him later" comment seems a bit scary to me. I would hire some bodyguards if I was Mark Penn.

5. Probably hoping a "big campaign shakeup" will divert attention away from
.....the rumored 50 super delegates endorsing Obama that is expected to happen tomorrow.

6. Seems likely.
People are going to start resigning if she doesn't fire them.
