Bounce, There It Is

12:12 am EST January 7th, 2008 | News | 1 Comment

I have a feeling that the Clinton campaign will be asking Mark Penn to shut up real soon. First he pooh-poohed the Des Moines Register poll, but that poll more than any other closely forecasted the Iowa results. Now he’s written another memo, this one asks “Where Is The Bounce?“.

Gallup: “Obama vaulted to a 13 percentage-point advantage over New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton three weeks after they were tied here”
Rasmussen: Obama 39% Clinton 27%
WMUR: “The poll, taken on Jan. 5 and 6, shows Obama leading Clinton, 39 to 29 percent.”

I don’t think this is in the bag. Sen. Clinton is down but not out and the Obama campaign would do well to know that and not experience premature celebration.

But somebody shut Mark Penn up.

It seems that across the blogosphere everyone knows that Penn is going to be dropped, it’s just a matter of when? I say if Clinton doesn’t come in 1st or 2nd in NH, he’ll be gone real quick. These two major messes are actually worse than anything that comes out of Joe Trippi’s mouth.
