If Hillary pulls it out, will Mark Penn (her chief strategist) be considered a genius? Mark Penn is a very smart guy regardless of whether or not she pulls it out. He's a very smart guy.

But don't you think there've been a lot of mistakes? Sure. But if you have to lay them at the feet of one person, you lay them at the feet of the candidate. The candidate sets the tone.

7. Yes! In fact, every time I'm flipping channels and I see his face go by on Fox, I'm stunned anew

that he's being paid to appear on TV and is not in leg irons, rotting in a jail somewhere.
What a travesty!

6. "Pulls it out?"

Wouldn't it be "Pulls it off"? OR "Pulls out"?

That comment doesn't make sense to me. Does he mean pulls it out of the ditch?

18. Coming from a guy who lost the '06 majority for his party & deserves prison time

perhaps he see much of himself-grotesque, slimey, without ethics, and usually delivers for GOP types-in Mark Penn.
