Mark Penn did NOT help his boss on Hardball...More clinton poor judgment
Edited on Thu Dec-13-07 07:35 PM by Windy
He came across as a karl rove wannabe and swarmy....

another example of POOR JUDGMENT on the part of Clinton.

Look who she has chosen to surround herself with. Who would she call advisors during her presidency.

2. my spousette said:
(without hearing the intro or knowing who Penn is)

"What a jerk. Obnoxious, pushy, smarmy, and a real jerk."

I'm the political one here, but still, so proud.

3. I've often said "maybe Dems would win if they acted like Repugs"
Seeing it in action made me sick. I am sorry I ever, ever said that. You nailed it - Rove wannabee.

6. by hiring him for Dem primary
she may have jumped the gun and the shark.
Can't say I'd blame her if she got the nomination first, then hired Penn' tactics afterwards to fight the repugs fire with fire, but not other Dems. That I don't like.

9. In my view, it would be even more devestating for us in the general!
But we will probably never know because Hillary may have blown her chance to be the nominee with Penn. Oh well, nobody put a gun to her head to hire him, so oh well....

10. The man responsible for destroying the Democratic party?
THAT Mark Penn? Did you shoot your Teevee? It's Mr. Triangulation with thieves and criminals-in the end you become a thief and a criminal that way.
