1. As I have said a couple of times...
I would be fine with Obama paying that debt to Penn, he would have gotten his money's worth. Penn destroyed her campaign and with that her "inevitable" candidacy....

6. I LOL'd. That's really clever.
"I would be fine with Obama paying that debt to Penn, he would have gotten his money's worth." < best line of the day.

8. You ahve to wonder how well she would run the country if she paid

That loser big bucks to destroy her candidacy.

And her reading a Rolling Stone article about fifteen months ago, an article that spelled out how candidates who depended on the old style consultants might not do well in a race relying on internet techniques, that article might have saved her much of her current headache.

2. Is that loser still on her payrole??
I think Clinton's campaign will be used as an example for future candidates in how to blow an election. I cannot believe the poor planning/strategy/excecution that her camp has been involved with -- she has been ill-served as a candidate.

And Penn? Well, that's what you get when you hire someone of his "caliber".

4. Penn on the payroll speaks volumes about the HRC campaign
and none of it is flattering.

10. Her handling of her campaign points out the deficiencies
Not covered by her WH years, the NAFTA proposals, the banking reform act of 1999, the mega media consolidation of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. Et cetera.

By the time I list all her deficiencies to friends who are grousing "But Obama doesn't have the needed experience," they shut up for good!
