Mark Penn's like a Hit Man in the Witness Protection Program
Unlike the other candidates...Obama in particular...Hillary has pledged to stand up to lobbyists (I believe the other candidates are specifically pledged to do whatever the lobbyists tell them).
So, clearly, if Hillary is to stand up to lobbyists, she has to know how they operate. That is where Mark Penn comes in. After humping around Washington with one of the smarmiest PR firms around for many years, Penn really understands the underbelly of the beast. He's helping Hillary because he wants to make sure that people like him can't make a living in Washington. It isn't unlike a mafia hitman turning state's evidence in order to help the prosecutors shut down other hit men.
Really, it shows how indipendent -- not dependent on the Washington inside powers -- Hillary really is.
Brilliant and crafty. No?
