Penn admits his resignation was a sham
April 8, 2008 - 6:19am

Mark Penn, the highly-paid "senior strategist" fired from the embattled Presidential campaign of Hillary Rodham Clinton over the weekend, told his company Monday that the whole thing is a sham and that he is still a major player in the faltering organization.

Penn, in a conference call with Burson Marsteller managing directors, said the whole thing was nothing more than a name change.

UPDATE

Per TPM: http://tpmelectioncentral.talk.....lltracker /
— Obama leads Clinton by 10 nationwide; they’re tied in PA
— Obama tied with McCain nationwide
— McCain leads Clinton by a couple of points nationwide.
