If Penn was really at good at (5.00 / 1) (#4)

predicting election outcomes, the Clinton campaign probably wouldn't be running behind right now because they might have worked a bit harder from the start rather than believing their own PR about inevitability.

I agree (5.00 / 1) (#15)

and one of the reasons I leaned towards Hillary prior to IA/NH was I thought she'd have the knowledge and skill to put together a strong campaign team (having participated in winning two national elections and one primary) - something neither Gore nor Kerry accomplished IMO.

Similarly, my willingness to tolerate someone with Penn's background would be that he could deliver votes.

Neither seems to have been a good assumption.
