Idiot

This has to be the Clinton campaign's worst error yet. It's a staggeringly blatant conflict of interest. How can he not resign?
(CNN) — Clinton campaign strategist Mark Penn said Friday it was an "error in judgment" for him to meet with the Colombian ambassador to advocate for a free-trade agreement Hillary Clinton has said she opposes.

"The meeting was an error in judgment that will not be repeated and I am sorry for it," Penn said in an issued statement. "The senator's well known opposition to this trade deal is clear and was not discussed."
I've heard arguments for months that it's the folks that Hillary surrounds herself with that are the problem, Penn especially. This couldn't be any clearer here.

I wonder if she's ripping him right now.

  1. I think it's important to note that he'll probably still easily not not get a new job helping more Democrats get not elected.
