Hillary's Campaign still owes Mark Penn's co. $4.5 MILLION

During the Primaries Hillary's Campaign has had Mark Penn's company Burson-Marsteller do $14 Million in polling and consulting of which $4.5 Million is still owed by the campaign.

Clinton still owes about $4.5 million to her former chief strategist, Mark Penn, who resigned amid a controversial relationship with the Colombian government earlier this month. There has been talk that Clinton may even need to lend her campaign more money, something she did in late January as she was being outspent in February 5th states.

CBS News

Penn is probably even happier than Clinton that the money is rolling in again.

Obama (none / 0)

still owes me an apology for McClurkin...

I think this puts you and me in the same boat: no one cares.

So write a diary, it's off topic in this one.

Because (none / 0)

I state that no one cares about a topic? No offense, but just because you don't like the opinion, doesn't mean the commenter is a troll.

Its called an analogy (none / 0)

no one cares about Penn anymore, no one cares about McClurkin anymore. I think its a fairly simple concept.

Well it was certainly sassy (2.00 / 1)

which I think would put both you and I in the same boat ;)

I was having an interesting conversation with an Obama blogger yesterday- we were discussing how odd it is that we can all be so polarized in our writing, but in reality- we all pretty much agree on everything politically- save one thing...

Its so odd how we all just jump anymore, myself included... I know we are all wonderful progressives in real life. And yes, I am sassy in real life ;)

How could you be having an "interesting" conversation with an Obama supporter? Don't you know we're all vapid and clueless? ; )

Linc: It's no good, I can't NOT make a trollish comment.
Bobby Obama: Stay on target.
Linc: I am too close to making a trollish comment
Bobby Obama: Stay on target!
Linc: [shouts] McClurkin...!
Bobby Obama: Obama Bobby to Lefty Coaster, Linc trolled out an attack
Lefty Coaster: I copy, Bobby Obama.
Bobby Obama: It still trolls! The topic of the diary had no effect on it.
