In the wake of Colombia-gate, Clinton’s campaign manager Maggie Williams just released the following statement:
After the events of the last few days, Mark Penn has asked to give up his role as Chief Strategist of the Clinton Campaign; Mark, and Penn, Schoen and Berland Associates, Inc. will continue to provide polling and advice to the campaign.
Geoff Garin and Howard Wolfson will coordinate the campaign’s strategic message team going forward.
I suppose it’s as good of an excuse as any to get off a sinking ship. Clinton campaign conference calls will never be the same.
