Chris - I am normally with you on things, but I have to part ways with you on this one. Mark Penn resigned his title of "Chief Strategist". And that's about it. Yeah, he lost his veto power, but he's still on the daily conference calls making his opinions known. He's not a chief, but he's still one of the "elders" of the Clinton tribe. Mark Penn is just being palmed in the Clinton's hand instead of being played. (crossposted on HuffPo)

I agree that this seems to be a strategy to scapegoat Mr. Penn.

However what interests me more are the diehard supporters of Sens Clinton & Obama. The campaigns and the DNC need to get the message out that Sen McCain is not an option. He is not (if he ever was) the mavrick independant he portrayed in 2000. His positions are no where near those Sens Clinton & Obama. It needs to be driven home that a vote for Sen McCain is a vote for the status quo and would be irresponsible, even reckless.

I just don't understand how a supporter of Sens Clinton or Obama could even consider voting for Sen McCain.

Personally, I think it is too little too late...

The only chance that Hillary has is if Obama is "Vince Foster'ed"...
