Reply #21: Secret Source? Ah OK [View All]

Sure the headline gets attention but for what purpose? If its disclosed that Penn and Hillary's people are sliming Obama, it'll get major corporate media play that would backfire badly. It's the kind of slip-up the corporate media has been hoping Clinton would make so they could roll out all the old chestnuts and a few new ones...again, makes no sense to use Novakula who could and would easily finger a Penn or other Democrat to make sure all look bad in this situation. That's sure not a smart tactic for a person hell-bent on sliming another candidate.

Again...how does Penn affect policy? What influence does he have in getting troops out of Iraq or fixing health care or improving the economy. Also, ever heard of Morton Blackwell? If you can find ties to Penn and Novakula's buddy Blackwell then you're hitting at the heart of the GOOP slime machine.

Now who would benefit from a story that could backfire on Clinton? Me thinks the Ghouliani campaign has Novkula on speed dial moreso than Penn.
