Mark Penn Says What If?

"I WILL STAB MARK PENN IN THE FACE"Mark Penn, chief pollster for Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign, tells ABC that had John Edwards chosen not to run because of the whole affair-and-babymaking thing, "it would have been a very different race," because Edwards voters were "focused on demographics" and Hillary would have been their other white meat. "We will never know for sure," says Penn, for whose sterling services Clinton still owes $2.3 million, "but it will be the woulda, coulda, shoulda of this race." Or, you know, one of them.

BrianVan, considering that we know each other, um, biblically, don't you think it's time you started calling me by my real name?

(Also my sincere apologies to Balk & Choire for fouling up this lovely place with that previous comment, but it needed to be done.)

So, in other words, John Edwards' cock could have caused a McCain presidency.

I am so sick of Penn making this bullshit claim.

Edwards drew more votes away from Obama than Clinton. Having Edwards in the race actually helped Hillary, not Obama. Several polls demonstrated this clearly.

If Edwards hadn't run, Obama probably would've sewn up the nomination much earlier than he did.

So basically what Penn says is the opposite of what's real.

No wonder Hillary is having a hard time paying that bill.
