Is The Clinton Campaign Being McCained?
Fingers point to strategist Mark Penn for allegedly running Hillary Rodham Clinton's bid for the Democratic nomination as if she'd already won it: here, here and here.
Curiously, these blame-the-strategist whisperings always seem to start when candidates are in mortal danger. Where were all these off-the-record critics earlier in the fall, when we first started to see that Clinton would actually have to, *gasp*, fight for the nomination? Might this not just be Camp Clinton's way of deflecting blame for the campaign's missteps away from the candidate?
Don't know who Mark Penn is? Learn more about him here. He's being mocked quite a bit today for his cocaine-laced (rhetorically speaking) performance on "Hardball" after the Democratic debate yesterday. Don't understand the headline of this post? See here.
