Clinton's Debt to Penn

Yes, the source here sucks, (Bob Novak, traitor) - but I read it with a bit of vomit in the back of my throat so you wouldn't have to.  Even a stopped watch is right two times a day.  It looks like the Clinton campaign is in worse disarray, no make that chaos - then previously thought. 

Two big issues in the article:

Penn claims to still be running the show and message-

Immediately after Mark Penn resigned as Hillary Clinton's chief strategist a week ago, he was on the phone with at least two prominent Democrats to assure them that nothing had changed. He said that -- though lacking a title now -- he still was polling and crafting her message, adding that he had just participated in a top-level conference call. De facto retention of Penn signaled a desire to defeat Barack Obama at any cost.

The Clinton campaign is bound to Penn by $10 million in debt - they just can't escape -

Beyond loyalty, Penn is welded to the 2008 Clinton campaign by financial ties. A source who has had close connections with Penn got word to me that he believes the Clinton campaign is $10 million in debt to Penn, Schoen & Berland, which is owned by Burson-Marsteller. The campaign's March report to the Federal Election Commission recorded indebtedness to the company of nearly $2.5 million (with its expenses for the month listed at $3.1 million).

My sources suggest that Clinton's full indebtedness may be revealed only gradually. This money link helps explain why Penn is still around even though organized labor demanded his scalp last summer and he is blamed inside the campaign for failing to perceive the public's demand for "change."
