Mark Penn, In College

A lot more about Mark Penn's life as a Harvard man.

(He polled for the Harvard Crimson; he learned how to poll from CNN's Bill Schneider; he never went to class).

Both Penn and his replacement, Geoff Garin, covered politics for the Crimson. At the same time. There really is a conspiracy, folks.

How about a poll on whether Penn need to invest in a makeover and some plastic surgery?

Where does Pat Cadell, another former Harvard student-pollster, fit into the picture?

What about all those Harvard Crimson journalists? Some sort of cabal there?

Hillary's political cadre is loaded with
ivy(read: liberal) suits. She's even married
to an empty ivy suit. What's learned in these
exalted bastions is not how to live a successful
life...but how to NETWORK! Crap like Mark
Penn is not the exception to the rule. This
is the type of person the Clinton's gravitate
to, hire and schmooze with. And you poor and
middle class dopes keep this crowd on the public
stage...year after year. The Romanians once
took care of a pair of political grifters. And
half of you numbskulls want to elect this
Clinton pair ...again! There's no accounting
for the tolerance of liberal voters.
