For Hillary supporters: Do you like the job Mark Penn is doing?
Do you think he is doing a good job for Senator Clinton, or do you think she would be better served by a different senior advisor?

I'm wondering if her supporters support him as well.

1. NO! I do not think he has done well for her at all.
Hillary is too loyal to people, she should have canned his ass after Iowa. Maybe if she had she'd be winning now :(

6. Yeah, that's one of my problems with her
I am an Obama supporter but I hope I am allowed to comment. The red phone ads got me thinking about who really would be the best commander in chief, and I saw arguments for both, but one of the red flags I saw with regard to Hillary was her tendency to reward loyalty over competence. Bush has the same problem, and that's why he failed to remove Rumsfeld for so long, even though he was doing such a bad job.

2. You might want to wait until she drops out to comment.

3. What do you mean? Was that aimed at me?
I am only giving an honest answer to the OP. It doesn't mean I don't support her, or hope she is able to somehow pull something out for the nomination???

Sorry if that wasn't aimed at me. I apologize.

7. I m a supporter of Mr Obama........
She deserved a better campaign. She is a much better candidate and has many more positives than her campaign has supported and presented.

5. I dislike Mark Penn vehemently and I think he's a waste of time and money.
I also agree with musicblind, that loyalty is a problem in this instance. Of course, loyalty to Rev. Wright may end up being a problem for Obama. I don't know how much distance he can credibly place between himself and a pastor whose church he's been attending for 20 years.

The time for Penn to resign was months ago. It would be helpful if he would keep his butt in the background and take a huge pay cut.
