The Atlantic Memos and Mark Penn
August 15th, 2008 - No Comments »
This article about the Clinton campaign is pretty interesting, if only so we can see just exactly how it works from the inside. The memos are the most illuminating part.
Mark Penn somehow charged the HC campaign $14M for a years work… and now the Clinton campaign wants the Obama campaign to pay off that debt.
That’d be like asking Bill Clinton to pay Rush Limbaugh’s salary to thank him for 16 years of mudslinging.
The timing of this might be unfortunate… releasing these before the election may wind up giving free strategy to McCain campaign. I’ll be interested to see how that plays out.
