Yeah, I know. Obama claims he saved or created a bazillion and eleventy jobs with the Porkulus. And he thinks it was so awesome that Round 2 or 3 (I forget which) would be just the fix to the jobs problem.

If so, expect a lot of Democratic Pollsters to have their jobs saved or created just in time to tell their paymasters they are gonna get the goatse fuck treatment a year from now.

Nearly $6 million in stimulus money was paid to two firms run by Mark Penn (photo above), Hillary Clinton’s pollster in 2008.

Federal records show that $5.97 million from the $787 billion stimulus helped preserve three jobs at Burson-Marsteller, the global public-relations and communications firm headed by Penn.

Burson-Marsteller won the contract to work on a public-relations campaign to advertise the national switch from analog to digital television. Nearly $2.8 million of the contract was issued to Penn’s polling firm, Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates, according to federal records.

In a way, I wonder if some of the Democrat politicians careening into oblivion are/were promised jobs at firms that will get this sort of payment.
