She is a compulsive lair, like the movie Lair Lair. she is. In trying to divert her misspeaking she came on on Jay Lenos' and mocked herself on the sniper fire. maybe she is a natural comedian and don't know it. she can exploit it and be world wide and probably fullfill her power ambitions by been seen nation wide. And now we give you the funny and hillarious, Hiiillary !!!!!!!!!

Penn is a pig in a polk and shillery is pot roast.

Good grief! It's times like these that make me want to kick myself again and again for voting for her. I hope the next 10 states left to vote realize that she is not the candidate we want to send to the general election. My state had to vote much earlier and prior to all of these adolescent miscalculations and poor management of her campaign. But PA, NC and you others have had a chance to see this. Vote Obama!!

Well, the Democratic Party is really making fools of itself now.

Half of them will vote McCain if Obama wins.

The other half will vote McCain if Clinton wins.

What a bunch of idiots! McCain gets the red carpet to the White House.

Nader'08 anyone?

Timing is everything – I guess the current debacle involving Mark Penn and the Colombians is supposed to deflect attention from the brewing controversy regarding specifics of the Clinton's income that they finally graced us with late Friday evening (also strategically timed), as well as the fact that they still have not produced their income tax info for 2007. This attempt at appeasing John Q public with half -truths is an insult to our collective intelligence.

Mark Penn's company specializes in POLLING.

So, it's true, Hillary's values and policies are all based on what the latest polls say is popular.

So, I guess the latest POLL says Mark Penn is a liability – so he must be fired!

I wander if Hillary got the other POLL that says she needs to get out of the race!

Mark Penn didn't step down, he was fired. He had better be careful that he doesn't commit suicide now, shot in the back of the head. The Clintons can be very dangerous people to deal with, and they must be very angry at this point and looking for somebody to take their anger out on.

Hillary Clinton couldn’t run a popcorn stand, much less a campaign. This kind of experience disqualifies her as president.

If she runs our country like she has run her campaign. God help us.

Now I know where Obama gets his support. From the children who post here.

If she is a highly respect-worthy woman, Bill wouldn't dare to hurt her. She extrimely gets used to cheating and being cheated. It's too hard to respect her. At least for Presiden of USA, we need someone to respect.

I am so disgusted by the hate filled comments made by these Obama supporters. All they have done by their constant bashing of Clinton is to make it impossible for me to ever vote for Obama….Ever. There is always Ralph Nadar or the option of just not voting for President this time around….This from a life long Democratic. Go ahead pretend that Obama is not just another Chicago Pol….Snappy speaches do not a leader make. The swift boaters will eat him alive.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

So now he will get paid for wearing 2 hats in the campaign as opposed to 3.

………………….Advice and Consulting = Lies and Mispeaking………………….

*************ITS ALL THE SAME and I WANT CHANGE******************

First the feary tale, in NH, the Jesse Jackson in NC, the as far as I know on Obama being of the Christian Faith, Then the Bosina glich, coming under sniper fire, later the pregnant lady not been given atention in an area hospital, now her chief campaign strategist. Is this the experience she can show for the 35 yrs. she claimes to have and cannot even keep her finances straight, her speeches and remaks truthful. I can imagine the termoil in the WH the first day if she ever get elected whick I strongly doubt. Get real Mss Rodham Clinton!

For months I've been complaining about Mark Penn AND Howard Wolfson…particularily their connection to Burson-Marsteller…both high ranking executives of a firm we all should look into. This company is known for doing business with all kinds of questionable companies/people. None of this is news to the Clinton's. Besides the fact that Wolfson is still on board, so is
Penn as he is still doing polling work for Hillary. What kind of punishment is that? All Hillary cares about is perception and ground
control. Wake up America, Ms. Clinton seldom follows the rules. To lie about Bosnia, then lie about lying is SO her. Billary thinks they are above the rules. Senator Obama will not call her on her misdeeds unless he is attacted personally. He is trying his hardest to run a issue's based campaign. This is why the GOP is so desperate (Rush Limbaugh voter reg. caper) to run against Hillary in Nov. Her actions now and in the past are so numerous the GOP will have a field day if she is the Dem.candidate. Heaven help us. The GOP certainly won't.
The list of improper/and perhaps even illegal activities attributed to Bilarry will be a gift to the GOP and we will end up with 4 more years just like the last 7 &1/2. A draft is sure to follow a republican win. How else can they man the next 100 years? How old are your children? How old are your grandchildren? Think about it.

This guy is just another broken link in the broken chain of Hillary's campaign!!

Billary will be following the footsteps of Mark Penn soon!

Just watch! Billary will disgracefully RESIGN AND DROP OUT OF THE RACE!!!!

OBAMA – YES WE CAN!!!!

By law, all lobyist must register with the federal govt. They also must declare who they are lobying for.
For Hillary to be shocked that her chief stratigist was a lobyist for the Columbian govt. Is ludicrous.

HELLLLOOOO!!!! Will you people wake up!!! Penn is still working with the Clinton campaign. It doesn't matter that his title has changed, if he worked for a company and he "resigned" he wouldn't get a new title. He'd get sent packing with a building security guard to escort him from the grounds!!!

The Clintons think that people are stupid, and if anyone votes for Hillary, you just proved the Clintons right!

OBAMA 08!!!!

I keep seeing people blaming CNN for all of the negative publicity Hillary gets. Why blame CNN when it is her and her campaing that are giving them the amunition. CNN is just relating the campaign news as it happens. They do it to and for both sides. Hillary's has just screwed up more, and been caught in more "mispokes" than Obamas.

Congratulations USA! You have a Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (a friend of the Clintons) in the making. And I will bet my soul that Clinton (like Gloria) will be President…and Communist China and USA will become best of friends.

The Columbians just wast the same deal from Hillary that Bill gave to Mexico and Canada. Why is it that the Clintons and the foreign lobbiest are the only ones making out on these unfair deals? We saw what Happened to the Auto Industry, and the rest of the country that has suffered because of the Clinton trade deals. Get ready Pa. your next on their agenda.

As David Gergen tells of her private misgivings about NAFTA as public citizen and First Lady, she said nothing about it at the time; just as she could have said more about her misgivings about giving Bush a blank ticket to go to war. HRC today is a political aspirant who has morphed into centrist, hawkish, blue-collar Clinton – who will do whatever it takes to TRY to get the nomination. She's a blue collar working person???… Let's say, "a corporate suit." No more charades.

I suspect the story given here about the resignation is a cover for the real issue – the clinton campaign can no longer afford Penn's high salary, and he is not about to work for them out of, um, idealism.

Hillary promised today that there would be more "twist and turns" in this campaign… so she dropped from her tear jerking routine a fairy tail story of the death of a pregnant woman and then got rid of her chief polster and strategist. Congratulations Hillary… you finally have gotten something right.

This is called an implosion!

He got caught and he is working for Hillary of corse he had to resign so it didnt show that hillary was a part of it. Do you beleave what she tells you. Her campain is falling apart even more.

Hillary is the smartest lady on the face of the earth ,I think these young college kids and color people will not understand the concept of intelligent woman in our modern society ,whatever Hillary has done as far as changing or replacing her campaign satff ,just being justified and a good decisison ,only certain people like color and students are so ignorant and they can't see woman should be elected as the president,I feel sorry for those that beleving in obama that misleading the public by promising Change,god knows may be your pocket change.Hillary for 2008

…. and he is still advising the campaign!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do we really want this mess in the White House. We have alrady had eight years of deceit!

HILLARY should quit the presidential campaign before more lies and stories are being CREATED and EXAGGERATED by her and think she could fool the American people!

How could she runs the country if she couldn't even manage her own campaign team??

Seeing how she condemed/criticized Obama on the Canadian Trade issue….well…she totally deserved it now…

OBAMA 08! – The One & Only Presidential Candidate that will bring CHANGES to Americans and the Country!!

HA HA HA, is all I have to say to this. Now where will Clinton go without a chief strategist? She wasn't doing all that great with one, now how will she get by without one.

Obama Richardson 08!!!!!

Wake up, Hillary..wake up…everyone else has.

Hillary Clinton LIES about her experience, snipers, healthcare stories and when she is caught telling a LIE, she LIES to cover the LIE. I hope Americans do not forget that if Hillary wins we have not just one LIAR in the white house but remember LYING Bill who is such a LIAR. Remember the American public was LIED to in order to get into the Iraqi war, so I do not believe we want another president that is a LIAR. CLINTONS are LIARS.

This is huge. I can't imagine a worse time for Hillary's campaign to be shook up to this degree. If a campaign is any indication of a cabinet or White House, then it is obvious that Obama is a superior executive. Why isn't this pointed out more often by the punditry?

GEESH…..HE DID NOT GET FIRED….HE IS STILL WORKING FOR THEM…..THEY HAVE JUST DISGUISED HIS TITLE…..PLEASE DO NOT BE SO NAIVE!!!!!!!
HE HAS BEEN WITH THEM SINCE 1996 AND THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT AND WHO HE IS…HE HAS HELPED CLINTONS A GREAT DEAL..THEY ARE AS DEVIOUS AS HE IS!!!!

You people who are talking about the hypocricy of Clinton are ridiculous. Mark Penn is only part of the company, Penn, Schoen, and Berland that does Ms. Clinton's polling. The fact that the company is staying on the campaign to do polling for it isn't at all hypocritical of the Clinton campaign. People other than Mark Penn do the polling. The fact that she is continuing to use this company to do her polling makes since because the work that the polling company has done has nothing to do with what Mark Penn says.

You people need to learn how a political campaign works.

I wonder why CNN never checks the people that are behind the Obama campaign. Oh yea I forgot CNN is trying to get Obama elected. I guess SNL will have to do another skit or have Lou Dobbs talk to them. Lou Dobbs is the only one that tells it like it is. Is the Obama campaign paying CNN? I know they have a direct line to you and tell you what to say. When 76% of the people say CNN shows favortism to Obama, you would think they would change the way they report the news. Everyday its Clintons, never Obama. When this is over Clinton should sue you for deflamation of character. You are supposed to tell the news not promote a candidate. I have never seen a news network do anything like you are doing in my life.

She should have fired him. OBAMA 08′

SHAME!!!!!!

People! Please learn how to read! This is a Clinton lie as usual. He's only dropping his title but will still remain on the Clinton team. Maybe the moronic MSM might catch up to the lie in this story after the primaries are over.

What's next, we find out that Hillary's pastor said some raciest things too? Everytime Hillary throws mud, it comes out a few weeks later that they have the same problem.

They keep saying that Hillary has been Vetted, that may be so, but it's all the new stupid stuff they do that gets them now. Look at their history, of course the Clinton's will do something stupid. It's in their DNA.

That's true Rocky never lied………..lol…………lol………………lol………..

Never fear-she will replace him with the equally inept Howard Wolfson.

Please Hillary, stay in the race so you can destroy your chances for 2012. you go girl!!

And how many millions are the Clintons still paying Mr. Penn?
I certainly hope he has a physical from a neutral doctor to be on recird that he is fine- no depression or any thing peculiar and stay safe. By the way Mr. Penn better hope he has not upset Mr. Carvelle too badly because he will verbally slam him forever.

Hillary looks to be just another lets give the greedy multinational corporations everything they ask for even if it severely hurts American citizens and our future national security.

to all of you wimps calling for hillary to quit – stop being so scared. obama has to EARN this election, not have it handed to him after we are this far into it.

and i'm glad this guy is gone. he should have been gone long ago.. its not the campaign imploding, its some house cleaning. this guy never carried clinton or her campaign – she doesn't need him.

hillary08!

Are Clinton supporters that dumb that they thinkshe wouldn't know who this guy was doing a free trade deal with. Duh!!!!!!
This story is not over. When the news that Bill Clinton has ties to this Columbian president , then the….will really hit the fan.

I used to be for Hillary but it seems to me every time I watch the news,she lie about something or hers staff quit or got fired. If she plans to run the country like she is running her campaign, then we are in very,very grave danger.

fired him or go home with him Hillary. Just do the right thing leave Obama alone and go focus on your stories.

Enough of wasting money running negative campaigns against democrats.

After the lies of Bosnia, Nafta, and the mismanaging of money and campagin. After firing what seems like half her staff as well as the hiding of her taxes for so long as well as not relasing her ear marks or list of donors to the library, as well as not being able to control her own husband in the white house. Just a small list of things that make me wonder what a person would see in this lady. Then the comments of people saying that they would vote for Mccain if Obama is the winner are just laughable. You would go from voting for one candidate who is very similar to Obama to someone who is completely diffrent in view. If this is the case what is ur base for voting for someone? It shows how shallow a person is if you are voting for someone else becuz your candidate lost then that is sad

Hey Hillary,

The only thing I want to see you spend time on is planning to tell the American people about your real experience – wife of a Dem Prez who cost the party its Congressional majority in the 90's, the appointments of Alito and company and the person responsible for setting the cause of national health insurance back 15 years!

Joke or not – every time the going gets tough you roll out the gender issue!! I'm not worried about how you look, only how you think. Face up to it, the majority of Dems have had enough of you and Bill!

What will be interesting is not whether the news media pick up an run with this story, as well they should. But if those Americans, who have not yet voted, or those "undecided" delegates are paying enough attention to the constant lies, misspoken words, untrue stories, "everyone else's fault", mismanagement, manic/depressive behavior, to recognize a real, true, LOSER when one is presented everyday to them. I am from Nebraska and hope Pennsylvania voters "wake up" to the real issues of Clintons lies before its to late.

You cannot make a silk purse out of a sows ear. Obama is what he is and noamount of gloss will make him acceptable to decent people that worship in churches that dont use the name of the Lord in vain and support and value the United States of America.

If this were an isolated incident, maybe we could forgive, but she has had three people now leave the campaign, or cause her serious damage and she has not reacted very quickly to it. In this case Senator Clinton did not respond today to the news.

Further, how can one quit but their "firm" still be involved in the campaign? Is this how a Clinton cabinet/administration will run? I am not pleased with the implications.

Senator Obama is human, but he has a far greater bar level of integrity and honesty and quick handling of problems that the Clinton campaign has demonstrated.

PA voters, please think carefully and put Obama on top with a win so we can begin to wind this process down.

It's time to concentrate on helping Barack Obama beat John McCain. Hillary Clinton is old news.

Hill's whole campaign has been based on LIES!
Bill Lies!

Latest LIE —
Chelesa was jogging by World Trade Center during 9-11
But she was watching on TV 12 blocks away!

Bush Lies! Hill Lies!

Need Change HONESTY!!!!!

Hillary found this out at 3 O' Clock in the morning……ring ring:

Caller: we've got a run away bus……..Columbia, Hospital
Insurance death and snipper fire

Hillary: throw Penn under the bus,

Caller: who's going to drive the bus?

Hillary: let it crash and burn, we don't need it anymore

This may not be the only Penn Hillary loses.

Magget Williams & Wolfson shoudl also both resign.

hillary is a joke this penn guy still in a advisory role does the clintons everyone is as stupid as they are. as far as the super delgates with all thats going on i have to question there ability to
to make sound desions?
it would not be a wise deision if they sup. del. gavethe nomation to
hillary and billary

So what else is new? It's the Clintoons….

The superdelegates are watching and taking notes. There is no way she will win this. Impossible! It's hard to understand how people think she is against NAFTA while she and her husband put this whole thing together,, and secondly, how can she be anti Iraq war while she voted for it. Impossible to understand how some people still think she is a good candidate. I don't mind voting for a woman,,, just not this one. And also, she was anti UNIONs when she worked for Walmart. Research it.

To: EX HILLARY SUPPORTER

WHATEVER!

The people that say Clinton shud get out and she is a loser better start thinking for themselves, although it is hard with all the negative news the media unfairly gives her. CNN is one of the worst. Lou
Dobbs even did a show about how unfairly Clinton has been reported.
I still don't understand why Americans cannot see things for themselves. They stand with a man (who I did back in the beginning) that went to a small chuch after the Nevada primary and spoke to the congregation and told them to listen to their leaders, pastors and even gang leaders because when he becomes President there will be a meeting and there will be new rules for the black man.
After that Wright comes in the picture and dams America, whites and Jews. Wake up people he is not who he seems to be.
And you make remarks about Bosnia?
Of course he generates more money that Clinton, he has an open checkbook with Oprah! By the way, Oprah is a REPUBLICAN, and all of a sudden she is backing a democrate? Of course she says it is not because he is black!
Also, Hillary Clinton is not behind in the polls if you count Michigan and Florida. Both names were up for vote in Florida and Clinton won it and it shud be counted. Obama had his name on in Michigan and the last minute toke his name off. His own fault. I thought this was the UNITED States of America not the United States of America excluding Michigan and Florida!!
People please open your eyes and ears and listen to everythng. I was once for Obama until I realized what he really is. There is something wrong inside him he is hiding.

d

I am glad she got rid of him i think he was working against her all along. She will do alot better now that he is gone.Gov renndale can advise her better he is a great gov here and a very smart and powerful politician.

Mark Penn – contacts the Colombian government over a pending free-trade deal, despite HRC's criticism of the U.S.-Colombia trade pact.
HRC – we were under sniper attack in Bosnia
James Carville – compared Bill Richardson to Judas
Maggie Williams – involved with mortgage companies stealing from the poor
Geraldine Ferraro – Obama's winning because he's not white
Patti Solis Doyle – fired and replaced with Maggie Williams
William Jefferson Clinton – "Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in '84 and '88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here.

Need more?

It's time to jump party lines! Vote McCain!!! Go back to the hood Obama!

Bravo Sen. Clinton, you should have canned him a long time ago.

sorry I was typing so fast.

the media outlet is c-span, it was on the radio which mark penn was criticizing obama.

I left out that it was actuallly hillary support that said senator clinton….

You people kill me . Obama's no saint please, he's lied too. He's lied about he's family. You Obama people are unreal. I would never vote for him and his minister and his wife who all hate america. PLEASE SPARE ME. He can't even salute our flag. I'm not voteing for anti- AMERICAN EVER. I'll stay home Nov thank you. I wouldn't waste my time.

So he quits his main role with the campagin, but the HRC says that he is still going to be around to give advice…This is funny…What's the difference? He probably wasnt getting paid anyway because Hillary Clinton had already announced she wasn't paying her top staff. Enough with the games.

Obama 08

Thanks for making the right decision. The Obama supporters are full of it. Hillary had nothing to do with Penn's phone call. Penn is gone so leave Hill alone.

Hillary will win the nomination on the convention floor.

Hillary's own conduct reflects her campaign Strategist- Double talk and Conflict of Intrest. She cannot be trusted to hold ANY public office.

To North Carolina–better get your facts straight–Hillary didn't fire Penn–he decided to step down BUT she is keeping him on for advice—

She has got the worse judgement I have seen in years!!

When will people realize…Hillary is NOT the best choice for president!! She has run a SHODDY campaign, squantered millions of dollars and made countless mistakes, missteps and *MISSPEAKS*. Obama, by contrast, has pretty much run a flawless, upbeat and positive campaign. Why do you people STILL back her??

I have a gut feeling that Obama, plus a sound Cabinet and any Congressional make-up, is going to take the United States of America back to its former glory. Your country is on it's back and needs to recover quickly. THE WORLD IS WATCHING!!!
Obama '08

Can you say double speak. Why is he advising if he is fired. I heard him speak on CNN saying how the obama campaign says one thing and does another.

Hillary said the same thing about the canadian affair.

unknown to most is that msnbc reported that it was actually said that senator clinton is not as a harsh critic as she appears on the stump.

I am tired of being lied to

I am voting for a better future for America and that is Barack Obama

Please realise we are the Democratic party first

If you really care about the issues you wouldn't vote for mccain who is far removed in our democratic ideals.

"will continue to provide polling and advice to the campaign"

How "presidential"

Maybe he can chip in as an accounts payable clerk or as a fund raiser as they're obviously short staffed there.

Hillary likes to talk about all the problems Bush has caused and presents herself as a problem solver. If she goes on to run the country the way she's managed her campaign, there will continue to be no shortage of problems for her to talk about solving.

What a sneaky hippocrate. Her campaiger strategist played the same double face talking to please the Columbians for profit and advised Hillary about trade. She is a total phony, a dishonest woman. Now, she says more twists to come, trying to drag Obama in hot water. No. she thinks we are stupid. Go retire with your $109 million.

Maya, don't try to turn this around on Obama. I really feel sorry for people like you who have to hide behind your lies. Because if you truly believe in someone like Billary, then you must share her morrows, lieing, being a hypocrit, being self centered and only for themself.

Thank God for Karma – you better look in the mirror to see the truth and not just the jaded reflection or you'll find yourself reaping what you soe…

This is her do-do – Obama's be trying to run a straight and clean campaign cause that's the way he would want to President or country – but miss Billary is doing any and everything she can do to win – again, the way she would run our country.

Wake up and smell your own do-do.
Quit being a troll, this is billary's s(hit)! Not Baracks!!!

This is a big issue. One of her chief strategists working with her on her campaign, while at the same time working on a free trade deal. I hope the voters in Pen are paying attention!!!! This could cost her the state!!!

…….not Penn, error clinton's camp. at all from day one….

Come on, People don't be fool to think Hilliary Clinton was not aware of Mark Penn meeting with Colombian Trade Agreement. This is another Lie by the Clintons

This should have been done months ago, what a waste of money this guy was.

LOL! So it's alright for Penn to continue to advise the Clinton campaign after the shady double talk with the NAFTA dealings? Why not cut ties with Penn altogether? Makes no sense. Then again, it does make sense. The Clintons want to keep Penn close so he can continue to get those CAFTA dealings completed. After all, it was Bill Clinton that put NAFTA into progress. The Clintons are allergic to being honest and their whole campaign revolves around fooling stupid and uninformed voters.

Mark Penn is still an advisor so Hillary can continue to SAY ANYTHING TO WOO THE VOTERS and WINK WINK TO SPECIAL INTEREST GROUP!

I guess Hillary thinks AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE STUPID AND THEY WILL BELIEVE WHATEVER SHE SAYS. Just look at how many people follow her in the HILLARY'S FANTASY LAND!

I am wondering do Hillarys major supports go along with another unfair trade agreement? If any of them do, how will they explain their willingness to support the backroom deals to deceive their very own local, and statewide voting public?
We need to call this primary what it is, a woman and her mafia running a campaign to steal what ever they can from all Americans.

Come on CNN, the bigger question is why is Clinton allowing active lobbiests to run her campaign. This is unbelievable. How about you start doing your jobs and start asking her just what the hell she's doing.

They did the right thing, letting Penn go. But it just shows how much Clinton's campaign has gotten out of control.

That they would have used someone as chief strategist who had other conflicting interests like this is simply beyond me. I cannot believe that Clinton did not know of those conflicting interests, and what poor judgement to allow that to continue. Or if she did not know, then shame on her for not doing the appropriate checking.

Either way, it shows still more dramatic evidence of her poor management of her campaign and her staff. And that speaks pretty poorly for her ability to manage other large, complex enterprises. A country's presidency, for example.

Did Obama "fire" his campaign aid for meeting with Canada re: the NAFTA issue?? No, didn't think so. More Obama people expecting the use of double standards again….

He was nothing but DEAD WEIGHT Anyway! good Riddance!

NO BAMA! NEVER! NO WAY!

HIllary 2008 or MCCAIN08

It's been boring for a day now. TIme for a cry or a lie ! Stick a fork in her…

This is mark Penn's lucky day. He sold his soul to the Colombian governebt and the clinton campaign, and now he is off the hook on both counts.

hillary's tail is under her butt!!!

obama08

Stepped down, not fired. And still working on the campaign, just not as the chief strategist. Umm, what does Senator Clinton have to say. We haven't heard a word from her.

Not a good way to run a campaign and presidency because that's what this is a precursor. Not good.

Also, this is not about Obama. Solely Clinton and her camp.

Notice how Obama has not attacked her with all the mishaps going on in her camp….bosnia, hosptial misinfo, and now Penn to name a few. He just speak about the issues. Think about that.

Just a shell game

each of them had someone in their campaigns who crossed over the limit, the line.

each of them had in their campaign someone who crossed the line, the limit.

Go Hillary!

Obama is getting more brazen in his personal attacks and obfuscation every day! He really is one down and dirty, ego-driven, power-hungry, conflicted and racially lopsided guy! Divisiveness is now defining him.

I find it interesting that Hillary never fires anyone who is not cutting the mustard in her campaign, they all resign. Sounds like someone is too attached to her inner circle to make executive decisions. Kinda reminds me of Bush that the tough decisions effecting their cronies are always made by the crony and not the crown.

she simply has no life…This IS not the leadership required to lead this country… and we're NOT STUDPID, he'll still be managing her campaing, only in the background and if she gets caught she'll say "i was so sleep deprived that i didnt even notice he was there"…. sickening…très triste

clintons accounting GULLIBLE voter most they love lier and crooks

Do you Obama IDIOTS really think he is gonna win Ha HA HA!

So his company is staying on to advice the campaign but he is gone. In other words he will still work on the campaign but behind closed doors.

Clearly this has been one of the worst run campaigns. Clinton has lost a double digit lead overall to being behind nearly double digits. That's not running a good campaign. If that's evidence of being ready on day one, than we are in big trouble if she wins.

OK. Penn has "resigned" sort of. Now it's time for Hillary to "resign" PERMANATELY!!!!!!!!!!

That's one thing ANY Clinton supporters CAN be proud of Clinton Campaign, they have HONOR and INTEGRITY, Obama campaign is DEVOID of HONOR and INTEGRITY!

Now that the Clintons have released their Tax returns and CNN,MSNBC,FOX and other media outlets have the release on their desks!,being scrutinised,dissected and analysed. Good for the media to do that.It is now time for Obama to log in his time details in Chicago for as long as it takes.It is also appropriate that Obama's joint Tax returns be exposed and treated the same way they have handled the the Clinton's return.This is a fair request.Let Mr.Tim Russet give us the details-I think is more objective compared to others.The sooner the better,for this split Nation(politically and others!)

No he did not realize this on his own. The Clintons pushed for him to resign he would have never done this on his own. It would have been more effective had they came out and said they fired him followed a press release stating so. This makes it look like he left on his own accord and that the Clintons gave him the option. Truth be know , Penn made the Clinton's look stupid and ill informed as to what their people were doing more than once and this was the final straw. Now it recovery time and of course time for statements of deparation as Hillary did when she stated she should be give points for the time it takes her to get ready each day and how hard she works. No one cares what you look like, or how your hair is done, what we care about is what comes out of your mouth. Too much double speak for me is all I can say.

White house becoming Inc for clintons big bussines screwing US jobs ,she want billioners

When all my friends at the office jumped to Hill's ship when the Rev. Wright thing came out, I stood by him. I said this man has character, he'll come through and now I'm so glad I did. Guess what, many of those who jumped ship are coming back…

China love billary Free trade make clintons be come multi millioners

Someone on Hillary's staff mis-speaks – Hillary is a Monster!
Someone on Obama's staff mis-speaks – Not Obama's fault

Wake up – Obama just uses his "mouthpiece" people better – very slick – and very weak

She didn't fire him because she couldn't when she was aware of the meeting. In fact, why do you think he'll still have a role in the campaign. The only reason he is "stepping down" is because they were caught. If he didn't, her campaign would not be just over, it would be completely over.

And these Hillary supporters can't see the forest for the trees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How many more slip ups will it take for you to see the hand writing on the wall if the Clinton's are voted back in?????

Are you guys kissing me? How do you think this guy got the "connections" for this deal?

You for a second think hillary is in the race for the people?

Sounds like she is in it for the 300 million dollar contracts people from her "inside" can line up!!

Investigate Penn and Hillary now.

Mark Penn "will continue to provide polling and advice to the campaign," Clinton Campaign Manager Maggie Williams said in a statement.

I guess the Clinton camp is betting the public won't clearly interpret the above statement. News flash: Mr. Penn isn't going anywhere.

LOL! So it's alright for Penn to continue to advise the Clinton campaign after the shady double talk with the NAFTA dealings? Why not cut ties with Penn altogether? Makes no sense. Then again, it does make sense. The Clintons want to keep Penn close so he can continue to get those NAFTA dealings completed. After all, it was Bill Clinton that put NAFTA into progress in the first place. The Clintons are allergic to being honest and their whole campaign revolves around fooling stupid and uninformed voters.

Obama 08 from Hillside NJ- You just reminded me of something I had forgot. That critisim of Obama for not being organized and she being the hands on manager. Now I guess we know what it means to be hands on.

i wonder what they didn't fire him; just th title change

There are so many uninformed Obama supporters spreading hate and lies. They should grow up and remember that the Clintons' are dedicated public servants. If Obama supporters continue the line of blind hatred towards Hillary, they stand to lose should Obama be fortunate enough to win the nomination. Obama himself is a likeable person, with thin and exargarated resume, therefore he is the weaker candidate against John McCain come November.

It is sad all the hate which exists on these blogs. I am not a Clinton supporter but am still feeling bad how this thing continues to degrade.

I began seeing both candidates as an historic possibility. Each day that goes by I become more and more saddened that our first chance of having a woman president is overwhelmed by distortions, lies, attacks, and poor judgement.

Maybe some day we will have a woman in the whitehouse — there are many qualified women in politics. Unfortunately this chance was squandered by Hillary who must take responsibility for all that has happened.

I believe after all this long primary, we now know what a blessing it would be to have someone in the whitehouse with integrity and character, who is in public service to inspire all Americans to stand up and be part of their government by holding our elected officials accountable. Obama will do this through transparency and bring the political discussion before the people. I'm 62, white female with two precious granddaughters and pray for a safe and secure future.

I believe us baby boomers should step aside and trust in this next generation of young people to chart a different future, a better future.

God Bless Obama and God Bless America.

I guess it had to happen. Keep giving the polling numbers though. The guy from Obama's campaign who spoke to the Canadians should get the boot also.

If she runs the USA like she runs her campaign, we are seriously in trouble. Her management style really needs work…..

I am under the impression that if he thought that she could win he probably would have exercised some restraint before becoming a rouge strategist. It is clear that she cannot control her finances, her people or her message. She lies about sniper fire and releases her taxes on Friday afternoon in order to avoid them being critically looked at. With respect to the taxes, we want to know where the money came from last year. Apparently, you did not provide a detailed tax report for last year like you did for the rest of the previous years. Mrs. Clinton, do the Country and democrats a favor and end this farse of a campaign. I would truly be frightened if she were elected to the highest office and she could not run her own campaign effectively.

I am a supporter of Hillary but Mr Penn had to resign.
He was working on behalf of his firm on promoting the free trade deal that Hillary wis apposed to. It was a conflict of inerest.
It is in no way the same as Mr Obama lying to voters in Ohio saying he would re-negotiate nafta and his surogate was telling the Canadian Government Mr Obama is lying to the voters. Do not worry he would not re-negotiate nafta

Will she surround herself with this type of peple in the White House ?
Can`t we stop her -???
YES – WE CAN. !!!!

How is he stepping aside while both he and his company will continue to work for the campaign? Oh I get it! Hes was mis-fired or mis-quit. Give me a break. How stupid do they think people are?

Penn's strategy is not really working anyway.

Hillary deserved better specially everybody is beating her up.

This lady is tough and can handle the heat. She deserved to be the next President.

Hillary is the best!!

Dear Awaken. In your dreams. Obama will be your worst nightmare if elected. No Experience. No military service. No details. I don't want to guess what he will do as President of the Greatest Free Nation on Earth.

Give me the proven leader and patriot, John McCain.

I have no comment. I just keep reading about this messed up campaign. I can not believe all the drama in her camp. More to come.

It is so sad that so many people are so stupid. Hillary knew what Mark Penn was doing all the time. Wake up! Wackos!

The phone rang for Hillary. She didn't answer. The problem she was being called about had to quit before she could decide what to do.

I'm dumbfounded she had the poor judgement to hire this guy. I am dumfounded that he was so politically inept that he couldn't understand that talking to the Colombians would jeopardize Hillary's campaign. I am dumbfounded that Hillary didn't kick his fat butt to the curb 30 seconds after she heard what he did.

Maybe there was a backroom deal. Maybe Hillary said, "I'll let you resign, but if you don't resign immediately, I'll fire you in public." That was a poor deal if it happened. She should have busted him hard for this.

Now there will always be a question in voter's minds about whether or not Hillary has the guts to stand up to powerful lobbyists. In this case, she didn't. Not good. Not good at all.

This is a huge scandal. This is the type of thing that should make the CANDIDATE drop out, not the advisor.

She is now pretending to throw him under the bus to keep the bus from going in the ditch. We'll have to wait for the next curve to see if the bus wrecks.

I am seriously tired of all these Hillary supporters blackmailing American's into voting for Hillary by saying they would vote McCain. That's the shadiest thing I have ever heard, so you basically support the person not the policies. Such a selfish mindset, I bet you don't have children fighting in Iraq right now.

BTW, what makes you think Obama's supporters wouldn't just vote republican in 2012 against Hillary? This would just end up being a neverending cycle of republicans controlling the White House.

The Clinton political machine is not very forgiving. How many their faithful have they forced into exile now? The number has to be around ten.

This must be closed, or pro-Hillary comments are not allowed?

15 million of unaccounted income!!! we are not Obama bots, we just prefer someone who tells the truth when they screwed up!! I could care less about whether or not a person makes a mistake it's the part when they cover it up or deny their mistakes that makes me think there is a problem!!

well if isn't a lie that Hillary
has been caught up in its one of her campaign workers involved in something dishonest this is what you want in the oval office think people by by Hilliary

Obama 08

In between this and the 15 million dollars of unaccounted earnings on the Clintons returns (which by the way I have only seen a complete portrayal on this matter on fox news of all places) I think the Clinton campain is going where it started from in the GUTTER!

She didn't fire him. All she did was change his job title. The other networks are reporting that he will still advise the campaign just not as the cheif strategist. This is just a smoke screen to fool the unions into thinking she's not involved in the colombian trade deal. A colombian spokesperson said that during the meeting he could not tell if Penn was representing his firm or the Clinton Campaign which means Penn did not distenguish between the two. The Clintons are very much involved and new exactly what he was doing. I mean why would he risk a campaign job paying millions for a meeting with the colombians that were only paying his firm 300,000. They just didn't want him to get caught.

Well that's three major players on Sen. Clinton's staff down with a TKO. Whose next? Clinton is running a campaign on the fume's of desperation but God bless her, just let her run as long as she wants!!

Obama is a cooked goose in PA
Hillary 08

I note that Obama or his staff has not jumped on Penn the way the Clinton tag team did on Obama's staffer. She set it up perfectly by saying, "now if my campaign did something like that….'. Still, they have thus far shown restraint.

Well, meeting with a Colombian to lobby for CAFTA is a bit worse than speculating that Obama would not change a trade agreement.

I hope that the Obama campaign can afford not to roll in the mud with the Clinton's the rest of the way!

However, Clinton supporters will still whine about Wright, and this or that, clinging to the Clinton mystique to the bitter end!

The only move she could make after the latest fiasco. To those who try to get off point and start talking about Obama's "weaknesses"- they need to listen more and talk less.
He is the strongest candidate, he is the most trusted candidate, and he is the LEADING candidate.
No new-math can change that.
Democrats UNITE!

I had a chance to watch Meet the press this morning with Tim Russet and Gov.Randell and sen. Bob Casey.Both giants are Pennsylvanians.Mr.Russet was dwelling on the clintons tax return-suggesting that some big bucks for the Presidential Library was questionable???Immediately, sen Bob Casey,chimes in on the funding of the Arkinsas Presidential Library.Tim Russet looked sen. B. Casey in the eye and told him point blanc,that Obama had received lot of cooporate funding in his campaign.The insinuation,that it is only Bill and Hillary that had got the cooperate funds,flew through the window!Otherwise voters will be fooled that Obama does no get dollars from cooporation! No,T.Russet dimantled the notion! Good job Tim Russet, Keep MTP. alive and objective as usual.If someone as the notion that Pennsylvanians don't follow Tim at MTP.they are wrong.They know a lot more!

This is going to smart

Obama/Edwards 08

its not quitting if you are still giving advice and getting paid.

fallout from this story is just starting, this is going to be a great week!

Is Karl Rove available?

If folks could see the writing on the wall, this pathetic woman should have left days back, but feminist movement want to impose her against the wish of the people.
So sad. so sad, you can't be my President, Hillary.

Hillary is not a liar, as far as I know?

I really don't blame Penn. If I worked for the Clinton campaign I would find some creative way to leave as well.

Now, how on earth is Bill going to get himself fired?

I am a white college senior and believes so much in Obama cos leader like him comes once in a lifetime.Jesus,W churchill,Abram L,JFK etc are examples.Hillary is good but can be compared with Obama.Fellow countrymen,4get about Hillary and believe in this change.

THANK GOD! She would have had this in the bag already if it weren't for Penn. Too bad she isn't getting Carville back on the horse!!! He'd have this wrapped up by May!

HILLARY 08!!!!

Just another twist and turn in the Clinton saga. She has run the worst campaign and still parades and struts her stuff like she is going to win the nomination. Pathetic !

The only firing that would make sense is BILL CLINTON. He accumulates CONFLICTS OF INTERESTS that anybody else in Hillary's campain. The former president is genuine time bomb that would burst soon or later, should Hillary be the Democratic nominee.

NAFTA LIED BOSNIA LIED, PENN AND HER PRO NAFTA HOPEFULL Y PA VOTERS WILL BE WISER THAN OHIO WHO BELIEVE THE SMEAR SHE SPREADED ABOUT OBAMA, ANDCANADA when it actually was her campaign her 109 mill should prove 2 u all, big money/lobbyists like penn run hillbill show. move on to lie at 3am

GOOD GRIEF — R E A D – T H E – A R T I C L E !!

Hillary did NOT fire him. SHE did NOT ask him to step down.

Penn resigned BUT he will CONTINUE to provide polls AND ADVICE to the Clinton campaign. So, in essence, all he gave up was the title. He's STILL working for Clinton. He's STILL on her payroll.

I do not understand why Hillary voters attack Obama as a media creation He has held elective office for many more years than Hillary. He was was only the 3 rd black senator elected to the US Senate which he won on own merits and not because he was married to a politician. Hillary would not be the Senator from New York much less a presidential on her own merits.

You would have thought that a CEO of Public Relations firm would've known better… if his meeting with the Colombians did in fact oppose the true position of HRC.

OregonBAMA '08

You would have thought that a CEO of Public Relations firm would've known better… if his meeting with the Colombians did in fact oppose the true position of HRC.

GOOD GRIEF — R E A D T H E A R T I C L E !!

Hillary did NOT fire him. SHE did NOT ask him to step down. Penn resigned BUT he will CONTINUE to provide polls AND ADVICE to the Clinton campaign. So, in essence, all he gave up with the title. He's STILL working for Clinton.

I think he quit to recoup the columbia account for his company. He is not stupid! Hillary is a goner, atleast save his business..

Oh wow, I'm so glad. This man has been creating problems for the campaign for so long now. Thank god Hillary!!!!!!!!!!

Mr.Penn,
Be glad that you got out while the getting is good.
Observer

Hillary is a liar and Obama is a double liar. Let us get rid of them..Just go away… You have no credibility to become President of our great nation…

Good for Hillary. She gets rid of someone when they are wrong. Not like some people we know.

Hillary has lost an advisor for pulling a dumb move. Obama has had two advisors pull dumb stunts. If you are going to criticize her for that then you should criticize him also. But thats right Obama can do no wrong. Get real. All campaigns have rotten apples. If you get rid of them then this will help.

Let's get back to the issues.

Hillary 08

I wonder what kind of staff and cabinet people she would hire.

The campaign didn't fire him, he step down, however they will still be paying $7.5 million of donar money into his coffers. She didn't have the guts to fire him, he does have the dirt on her. What good is it to step down when he will still provide polling data and other campaign idea's? This is a move done out of desperation to look as if they took the high road, but they didn't. Hillary is once again correct, "words matter", and her chicken are comming home to rooste. I always learned from my parents before you speak ill of anyone ensure you double check your closet, Hillary should triple check her closets, because they are full of skeletons!

Hillary predicts more twist and turns, maybe she should just come clean instead of making us live out her DRAMA!

Let's remember who we are dealing with here. Remember the different definitions of the word "is?" It is entirely possible that he "is" stepping down officially, but "is" still working unofficially.

Who excatly is Obama with anyway? It's crazy, we know too much about Hillary and not nearly enough about O!

Ready on day one – to do what?? Hire the wrong people? Clinton supporters need a reality check.

Seems we are going to punish Obama of Clean campaign and obeying the rules of the game!

MARK PENN – YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER!

Go Hillary – Good Luck

He's still going to be providing the same services. What did he give up? A title? That means he gave up nothing. He's still going to get all the money from those poor Hillary supporters who keep getting taken in.

Hilliary is a liar, and her campaign is supported by liars,….Bill, Chelsy, etc.

When will American people wake up and say enough! I don't want to be fooled any further. I can only be patient and fooled to some extent!

That is just the right way of saying that he got fired!!!

Good move Hillary… cant trust that guy.

Lifelong democrat voting Clinton/ McCain '08

hillarys crave for power is her downfall, she aint even paying attention to the people in her campaign, there falling like flies, but that wont even stop her from ending her campaign for power

This doesn't answer the questions: 1.) Did the Colombians think that Mark Penn was speaking for Hillary.? 2.) Did Mark Penn think he was speaking for Hillary? 3.) Did Hillary think Mark Penn was speaking for Hillary?

I wonder how long it is going to take for the truth to come out on this one which I suspect will be that Hillary actually supports the trade agreement but didn't want to tick off her supporters. "You go girl" as the supporters of liars like to chant.

Either he is fired of his actions or still working for the campaign with no action taken. No both ways!

Time to go Hillary. step down now please, you are making a fool of yourself…

so he resigned, but he still works for her – makes perfect sense

Can Hillary lead Millions?

Can Hillary lead the free world?

Can Hillary manage her own campaign?

Let people vote. How would you like to be a voter with an opinion and a bunch of folks who have already voted deciding to chose for you? This is too close. Finish it. Otherwise everyone will be mad forever. It's a process and let's work through it.

So let me get this straight. It's been about a week since this happened, and Columbia fired Penn before Hillary. And also, he won't have the same title, but he still an adviser to her campaign? Wow, am I the only one who finds this a bad move on Hill's behalf?

Not soon enough, and too little too late.

Hillary is a cooked goose.

OBAMA 08!

Hillary sure can pick them…… she is a LOSER…. QUIT NOW!

she is a liar, will do anything to get elected even throwing her own people under the bus (although I would have done it a long time ago) Pretty funny actually…she made an earlier critique on Obama about his desk being unorganized and it appears that he is better organized, prepared and will be ready on DAY 1. Stay in it Hillary…i enjoy seeing you lose the remainder of your dignity and self respect. You're going down and the Red Face adulterer is going down with you. Go on a vacation…you sure have the money!!

I'm glad Sen. Clinton decided to drop Penn as chief advisor: he certainly had a conflict of interest. Also, the company is not really Penn, Schoen, and Berland, as Schoen and Berland were bought out and Penn sold the company to PR giant Burson-Marsteller of which he is also CEO. Nevertheless, Penn has a long and excellent record of working as a pollster for both Clintons and the democratic party. Despite what O-bots claim, Sen. Clinton's opposition to the Columbian Free Trade bill is credible: in 2005 she voted against CAFTA.

This even makes me more convinced that OBAMA will be the nominee LOL!
OBAMA08!
-The Belief of Change and Honest is back-

Sounds to me as if he's still employed @ Camp Clinton.

Wow, Charma is a bi@#ch!!!!!!

MIKE REIMER…I BEG TO DIFFER..OBAMA WOULD STILL BE AHEAD…OBAMA HAS WON 29 STATES TO CLINTONS 13 AND IF YOU USE THAT SCENARIO..SHE GOT TEXAS PRIMARY AND HE GOT TEXAS CAUCUS AND HE STLL HAS MORE FELEGATES THAN SHE HAS…

Penn resigns but still be advising. what he will be advising ?? That your husband, Your chief strategist, and even You support NAFTA .
Isn't that hilarious, hillary ???

I don't believe it took this long for him to step down. This is a good move for the Clinton campaign as to shore-up the damage done by Penn. I am NOT a Clinton supporter, but this was one lamebrain thing to do.

re: maya,

its people like you that keep making others to havoc hatred for Hillary.

This is Hillary's own problem, Obama did nothing about it. Why do you attack him now?

He is definitely NOT a media creation. This man is really talented to the point that he invites everyone on his side so if the media falls for him because he is good, he should be given the credit.

I heard you people scream on here about how the media should vet him with the Rev Wright, Rezko and Muslim, and Not wearing the Flag pin and all sorts of issues. The media did go after him and cost him a few elections but in the end he has recovered nicely…..Hillary can't do the same because she doesn't have what it takes.

He is not a media creation, he is not affirmation action…Jesse Jackson and AL Sharpton etc would have been. Ask what does Obama have different than all these people including Hillary and you'll see why he's doing so well.

Mike Reimer April 6th, 2008 6:50 pm ET

As with all people move on, the issue the Clinton's s/b noting is that if the Democrats had a winner take all primary, Hillary would be ahead in deligates

YEAH and If my Grandma had WHEELS she'd be a WAGON!!! You people are REALLY SCAREY. It is comments like this that bolster the IQ and Educational division in this race. We know who the people who actually know what they are talking about are voteing for.

OBAMA.

“ I am still trying to…understand what he (Obama) has done for the country beyond his middle-of-the-road political moves to make his name known and to steer clear of hot-button issues. The Rev. Martin Luther King had a dream, too. But he acted on it. He went to jail, he marched, he led.” –Helen Thomas 4/6/08

Oh, how about inspiring and bringing in millions of new people into the process. Millions more that are now really paying attention to what our government is doing. Even if Obama doesn't win the nomination or the election he has already done more for this country than any other politician out there: He's show people that they can make a difference and that they can participate and that they can work for change.
All those people he's inspired so far. Gee, I wonder what he could do from the Oval Office when he's on a global instead of national platform.

He should never have been appointed to that position, it is just another example of how unethical the Clinton campaign is. I will be duped no longer, she can "misspeak" as much as she wants.
She has lost my vote for good, Jesse Ventura is coming across as a more attractive option for Pete's sake.

She did not fire him. He quit and still will give advise. People please read and think be you act. I know somepeole people are easy mislead but they should read and understand the facts. if you do this Obama would be getting your vote. He appears to be telling the truth I know you guys would say he has doing nothing but he has showed better judgment then Clintion and McCain. I could go on but you guys should do the research yourself and if you vote on facts Obama would get your vote.

Vote Obama not only for you but other to.

It says Mark Penn HAS ASKED to give up his role, not that he WAS ASKED. Goodness, I feel sorry you were Clinton supporters and your lack of ability to read. On another note, I guess I should start rallying my support around the presumptive nominee.

Isn't it amazing that the supporters of Hillary – even when confronted with the truth – can not handle the truth. THE ARTICLE EXPLICITLY STATES – HE ASKED TO STEP DOWN BUT WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE POLLING DATA. DOUBLE SPEAK AT ITS BEST. He is NOT FIRED! DUH

DANG – Can you CLINTONITES READ!

Does not Hillary still owe Penn a few millions for his service as a campaign manager?

This guy made the smartest move. He knows that the campain does not have any chance. So, he faked an "error in jugement" and got himself fired.

When all this is said and done, he will be able to say that he was not on Hillary's campain when it fialed.

let's see – so he resigned, but he still works for her – makes perfect sense in the clinton world

Rocky never lied…

Maggie William should step aside too. She was involved with mortgage corruptions and had earned millions. Why is this not an issue?

Hey Jack and anyone else,
Penn asked to leave, Hillary didnt fire him.( although, some unions in PA demanded it of her on Friday)…He also will still stay on in a polling and advice capacity…So Hillary isnt out of the deep dark woods yet!

Oh..does anyone mind that the 10,000$ charity donation quoted on the Clintons taxes went to their foundation?? I DO

PA— VOTE OBAMA APRIL 22

Clearly most of you can't read very well. He was not fired and would not have been fired. In fact, he is still on the campaign, goodness people, where were you all during context clue day in English.

good decision……..

Missouri

HRS is a weak candidate. She is untruthful, unable to acquire a competent managers and overly relying on Bill.

If her last name was not Clinton , she would of been done long ago!!!

This little "step aside" show of Mark Penn in the Clinton campaign sounds a little shady. Penn and the Clinton's are probably deeper than what we know.

The Mark Penn/Colombian episode is just another example of the Clintons’ lack of control and experience.

May we wean ourselves once and for all of the Bush-Clinton dynasty.

I fear and predict the worst things to happen and we are looking foward to a train wreck!

You Clinton bots are FUNNY. These comments that make this such GREAT thing that will put Hillary in the White house are laughable. She gets BUSTED Tricking the people of Ohio and Texas to win Primary and Now shes BUSTED Lying about yet another story she has based her image on and you people STILL think every negative is just another reason why she is soo great?

There are more pennies in a pound than IQ points amongst all of you put together.

Talk of calculated moves!

good riddance.

HE IS STILL WORKING ON THE CAMPAIGN, WAKE UP PEOPLE.
CLINTON AND HER NAFTA LIES ARE COMING HOME TO ROOST.

Well so long as Clinton donors get to keep paying Penn and his cronies millions for polling I guess we don't need to shed any tears for them.

I mean who hires Burson Marsteller – PR firm of choice for dictatorships – It's jaw dropping.

So PA when are you going to put aside your fear of change and vote for the future. If not for you…then your children. Time and time again, Clinton has demonstrated she's not ready to lead this country. Just think about one thing: How has she managed the single most important thing in her life…her campaign tobe President of the United States of America. From the mismanagement of funds (excessive spending and not paying bills), poor judgement in advisers (Penn), her misspeak on subjects (Bosnia and young lady dying), to saying two different things on important issues that effect our everyday lives (the vote to go to war without reading the proposed bill). Now just stop and ask yourself, is this how she will run the country? If you don't think it's representative, then by all means vote for her 22 Apr. But if you say "I'm not sure"…then you need to consider now may be the time for change. Rememebr she said this was a job interview…and knowing what you know now…would you hire her? If so, then that's fine, but if not, let's move on and vote for change.

tick tick tick…

Karl Rove is the chief strategist of Hillary Clinton campaign. Karl Rove looking to go back to the white house. Enough!

Hillary should follow his lead!

Good, because apparently he hasn't been doing a good job.

This proves that Hillary DOES NOT have any leadership skills.

He's still working on this campaign…..these are the TYPES of people who are supporting the Clintons and giving them money!!!
Voters…………..don't be fooled by the Clintons!!!!!!!!!!!!

hillary should take her own advice and please drop out so we can focus on mccain, the problem is not penn, its her!

Maybe he'll restyle his hair!

Still advising the campaign after he steps down from the campaign? What kind of doublespeak is that? LOL

Penn will be by Clinton’s side in the White House for the next 4-8 years. Does anyone really think that’s a good idea?
He’s run a terrible campaign built on cheap cynicism, and the fact that Hillary can’t function without him tells you all you need to know about her judgement/integrity.

Our primary is coming up in June — Maybe we'll save ink by not having Hillary on the ballot.

problem is she owes him money too.Add that to her huge unpaid bill pile.

Between his dealings with Colombia and his firm's representation of the CEO of Blackwater, whose contract was amazingly renewed in Iraq, it was definitely time for Penn to go. Hasta la vista Baby!

Since the chief strategist of Hillary has resigned, it then means there is no other strategy left for Hillary for this election. Hillary please stop wearing us down and do the right thing and just like your chief strategist, provide polling and advice to the democratic party and campaign of Obama

As all campaign strategists do, Mark Penn speaks for his boss. As far as I’m concerned, anything that comes out of his mouth might comes out of Clinton’s mouth.

She could have hired somebody else, but she chose him…a reflection of her character

It's 3:00AM in Colombia, and Colombian children are at home, safe in their beds. In President Álvaro Uribe Vélez's office, a phone is ringing. There's a crisis in the Clinton campaign . . . . . and Hillary is on the line. "Hello, President Vélez . . . . it appears that Mr. Penn WILL be available to meet with you on Wednesday as planned."

FIRST: She did NOT FIRE him. Learn to read, he RESIGNED in disgrace because he realizes how bad a position he is in and how continuing will destroy his business (Colombia fired him already).

SECOND: The Clingon camp said he will STILL be advising and providing polling info. UMMM… so did he quit or not????

So Clinton did NOT take the "high road" or show any principles on this issue. She sat back and stayed quiet, afraid she would be caught in another "mis-spoke" moment (aka LIE) about NAFTA. The minute Clinton takes the high-ground is the minute she realizes she is the wrong person and quits.

If she has to pay Penn the millions she owe him in back pay immediately, she'll go broke.

Hiring Mark Penn was the bigest mistake Sen. Clinton made in her entire campaign. Penn is leaving now, but his legacy is the shamble he has helped make of Clinton's campaign.

The long and winding road of corruption will eventually bring the Clinton's down.

Not exactly a resignation I would say….more like a "I'll work behind the scenes for you" Senator Clinton hasn't renounced or denounced. So I would expect more of the same from the campaign…all strategized by Mr. Penn.

Looks like he is still with the campaign – even though he "stepped down". I guess her thoughts on CFTA are the same as NAFTA. She talks out of both sides of her mouth. I cannot believe that she even has supporters.

Too little too late Hillary.
There are only 8 states left and you are behind a million votes.
You won't catch up.
Walk away with a little bit of dignity.

We're pulling for you Hillary!! WE'RE Right BEHIND YOU!!!

Let the media pile on you… we'll jump to your rescue….. and don't forget, there's always 2012 (if Obama becomes the nominee, we'll vote McCain)

Good!

She's fired her campaign manager, and now her campaign strategist, her campaign finances are less than stellar. How can she still be making the case that she can run this nation? The Obama campaign hasn't had to fire any key members or change its political "persona" to remain strong in this election. I think I made my decision on who can best be prepared from day 1and who can pick the right people to surround him from day 1 without having to clean house so many times.

MAYA..I THINK YOU NEED TO DO SOME RESEARCH !!!!!!

WOW!!!When it rains it pours.THIS LADY is SURROUNDED by BAD and WEALTHY people,there is NO WAY she will will fight for us regular people…WAKE UP PEOPLE stop believing all of the Clinton campaigns LIES!!!

Too little too late. She's a loser!

How do you get fired, but continue to provide polling and advice to the campaign?

Either fire him, let him quit or don't. This is typical Clinton double-speak.

FEW WORDS;

I smell a rat ahead of the coming elections!

What about the 5 million Penn was paid?

Hillary herself has said that there are and will be too many twists and turns. Darn right! Look at the overall picture: She's charging down a treacherous path and in the process is bringing, or trying to bring everyone and everything else in her path along with her!

Too Bad, so sad. Hillary misspeaks, doesn't have the right people around her. Can anyone explain to me how she is ready on Day One? Please HRC supporters, really, tell me!

Leave, yeah right, guy was fired for doing a terrible job!

Did someone hear Hillary say she will not quit and she is about to win this election, did you?

Oh, yes, it happened to America before in 2000 and 2004 and about to happen again by any means and way ahead of the remaining elections. Ask Mark Penn and Clintons how.

Who is the CEO of Diebold voting machine anyway?

About Time!!!

A year late.

Well, more upset in the Clinton campaign, she can't seem to keep people. She changes people almost as much as Bush does. Shows me her management style is not very good and she can't seem to pick good people.

JUST LIKE FERRARO…THEY ARE STILL THERE AND DO JUST AS MUCH AS ALWAYS…THEY THINK WE ARE REALLY STUPID!!!!!!!!

FINALLY!

Somebody has to pay a price for acting a fool in the Clinton campaign.

Just more proof of the type of White House she would run!!!

I made the switch a couple of months ago because of this ding dong, now can we get the other ding dong (Bill) to just go away?$^&$#

white middle age, middle american, middle income lady for

Obama 08

wow thats a surprise… why doesnt she strategize herself????? I guess then she would haave to quit like the rest of them too…lol

Hillary's right about one thing…there are more "twists and turns"…they're all in her campaign, however!!!!

Hillary's campaign is a debacle. How can she run a country if she cannot manage her own campaign? She has money troubles, and she has people on her team that continue to make poor decisions. Too many mistakes.

Clinton mishandled this one in an epic way.

I cannot believe they're going to keep doing business with Penn and his firm.

It is about time. Should have been fired immediately.

So this means he's still working on this sad campaign…. Great Job Penn!

As with all people move on, the issue the Clinton's s/b noting is that if the Democrats had a winner take all primary, Hillary would be ahead in deligates.

Shows good judgement on his part, since he was hurting his candidate… too bad his candidate didn't make him do it first.

YEA RIGHT…GIVE UP THE TITLE BUT WILL STILL BE THERE EVERY BIT AS MUCH AS HE EVER WAS….WHAT A FARCE!!!!!

Yep – you sure know what you're getting if you vote for Hillary.

Or not.

HILLARY SHOULD HAVE FIRED THIS FRAUD/OPPORTUNIST IMMEDIATELY UPON LEARNING WHAT HE HAD DONE IF IN FACT SHE WAS UN AWARE AND DID NOT APPROVE.

Hold on to your hats, kids. If Wolfson et al are now in charge of determining the strategic direction of HRC campaign, it will be an ugly and bumpy ride…..

If she had done this six months ago, she'd have been the next president. Hillary, what took you so long?

Talk of stealing the election with diebold while outside Clinton campaign!

Sounds like Mark Penn got greedy$$ hoping to make a side deal withourt consulting with Hilary Clinton.
Mr. Penn should be removed from anything tht has to do with political consulting, period!

could she run a worst campaign?

he stepped down… she's not even leader enough to fire the jerk, pathetic

So in other words: He loses his title, but we still keep paying him millions of dollars

I really doubt this guy is resigning. And a forced resignation is the same thing as being fired. But why is Clinton firing this guy now? Does anybody really think she didn't know who this guy was?

The Clintons are pathetic and the fact that they only act after getting caught is shameful. Look hard at the way she is running her campaign, folks. It's the same way she will run her administration. Though barf bag companies will likely have record sales.

He resigned from being directly involved as strategist, but will continue to advise behind the scenes. How stupid does this campaign think the American people are!!

Good decision, i hope Hillary is reading the signature on the wall and do the same, step down.

It's too bad Hillary didn't make a comment on this issue…stay quiet, let your man take the fall. Still doesn't change the fact that she knowingly hired somebody with a conflict of interest.

I really dont understand how someone as strong as Hillary Clinton, couldn't have the foresight and the judgement to drop Mark Penn from the very beginning. She sure made up for it by firing him now.
Good Decision Hillary.

He was asked to resign, but will remain as an advisor? How stupid can this campaign be!

Good riddance to bad rubbish! When is Liary Clinton going to do the samw and drop out of the race?

Well, he definitely hasn't been helping her campaign any time recently…

"and another one gone, and another one gone, another one bites the dust."

Interesting development, indeed.

GOOD…
SHE IS THE BEST CANDIDATE…
-Hillary 08.

How many staff does this make?
If Hillary for President was a business–she'd have a hard time finding executives with her turnover rate.

ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN OF THIS IS THAT HILARY THE LIAR WILL BE CAMPAIGNING IN PENNSYLVANIA NEXT WEDNESDAY..
SHE OUGHT TO BE BOOED RIGHT OUT OF PENNSYLVANIA'
WHAT A DISGRACE TO THE PENNSYLVANIA BLUE COLLAR WORKERS.
ONE BLATIENT LIE RIGHT AFTER THE OTHER.
SHE IS NOT FIT TO BE IN ANY PUBLIC OFFICE….
SHE SHOULD JUST GO WRITE ANOTHER BOOK ABOUT ALL THE THINGS SHE LIES ABOUT

Failed adviser- Failed campaign- failed Presidency.

McCain 2008

Penn needs to sever all ties with the campaign IMO. This just seems to mean he wont be paid by the campaign but I am sure he will still be paid weather its by favors and/or the Clintons.. Sorry I am not that stupid..

Obama 08

Wow, that's the third to resign or get removed from running her campaign. What does this say about her judgement when hiring staff, or more critically a cabinet if elected?

Some rats you have to throw off the sinking ship.

Seriously, can anybody even remember a campaign that was so poorly staffed and run as Hillary's campaign? Is this the sort of cabinet that you want running our country, i.e., one that seriously messes up every few weeks and goes through convolution and personnel changes? Grief!

I've never seen a campaign as full of idiots and fractured as Hillary's campaign has been, but then again their campaigns are a good reflection of the candidates and what they would be like in office. Hillary would be a big mess.

too late..damage is already done.

Hmmmm….I'm sure he was doing what she asked him to do…

Come on Hillary….you know you support NAFTA…its your husband's project….

the clinton camp is slowly falling apart.

Wow. I mean wow. Wow.

This is the best and the worst thing to happen to the Clinton campaign in a while.

I think I will act surprised…

lol finally, they probably went back to the hotel and had a drink or two

SHAME ON YOU HILLARY NOBODY BELIEVES ON YOU ANY MORE

OBAMA CAASEY 2008

Good – now we can focus on the CANDIDATES.

“ I am still trying to…understand what he (Obama) has done for the country beyond his middle-of-the-road political moves to make his name known and to steer clear of hot-button issues. The Rev. Martin Luther King had a dream, too. But he acted on it. He went to jail, he marched, he led.” –Helen Thomas 4/6/08

Obama is a weak packaged candidate and a media creation.

Good. Now we will see if Hillary gets better advice then she has been given. Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About time she fired him! I think the walls are starting to cave in on the Clinton campaign.

Excellent critique

More double speak… "will continue to provide polling and advice to the campaign," Clinton Campaign Manager Maggie Williams said in a statement.

Sounds like they are still working for the campaign?!

Do they think we can't read?

YAHOOO!! WAY TO GO Hillary!! GREAT MOVE!!!

Hillary's campaign is gonna bo back on top now!! You WATCH!!!

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER. To the moral high ground with you Mrs. Clinton and move swiftly!

According to her campaign finances firing him should also save $7.5 Million dollars!!!

Wow . The Clinton Campaign is imploding nicely now .
If she can't run a primary campaign how can she run a government ?

Once again the Clinton's show poor judgement in who they select to be around them .

I guess she'll have to really negative now , here comes the kitchen sink .

Obama 08 !!!
YES WE CAN !!!
