If any one wonders if Hillary's principles take a back seat to her political ambition,
Edited on Mon Apr-07-08 11:19 AM by hisownpetard
I offer two words: Mark Penn.
I mean, I'm sure she's not keeping him around as eye candy.

So that means that, even though he charged her through the nose for his services as strategist and advisor, and even though he was
acting as a double agent, getting paid at the same time by Colombian interests that were diametrically opposed to what Hillary supposedly
wants, she only goes through the motions of having him resign in order to silence the critics, and then has him stay on and simply change the title
on his office door.

Not only did he "cheat" on her, but she was paying him millions to do it. Maybe she respects him for his greed.

The woman is a walking testament to the kind of ambition that destroys people and entire cultures.
Greek mythology would be nowhere without it.

And this is the problem with Hillary Clinton, and what brings her down every time: she does not have a scintilla of conviction in her soul.
