Although Black took a leave of absence to tra la along on the Sweet Talk Express once his lobbying from the back of the bus got exposed.

Oh, Howard, go back to your pals at Faux News. Your disinformation slip is showing.

And take Mark Penn with you, while you are at it. I suppose it’s a mere coincidence that the very advice Penn gave the Clinton camp on how to destroy Obama during the primary somehow made it’s way into the hands of McCain’s campaign folks…and that Penn and Charlie Black just happen to have worked together for years. Yeppers.  Just a coinkydink, I’m sure.  Sullivan has more.

Wow — I’d forgot that Mark Penn and Charlie “Cofer” Black are old stablemates. That explains a lot, doesn’t it? How PUMA of them.
