Ed Rendell is on Charlie Rose tonight, he's a fabulous supporter for Hillary

[housewolf]

He's talking her up in very positive, substantial ways.

Talking about how much she knows. Why women are so angry about how the media has treated her.

He's being very fair to Obama, too, recognizes and acknowledges his gifts (but a bit critical of his speeces as being non-substantive).

He also said that Carville was way over the top re: his criticism of Richardson.

I enjoyed watching him talk up Hillary.

Catch the interview if you get a chance, I think all Dems will enjoy it regardsless of which candidate you support.

1. Fast Eddie desperately wants

a seat at the high table.

He's been angling for it since he was mayor of Philadelphia.

Too bad he's completely screwed the pooch here in PA with his push for casinos.

[TwilightGardener]

5. Isn't he threatening other PA officials with state funds-withholding if they

don't support Hillary? I heard something about Luke Ravenstahl along those lines. He's pretty slimy (Fast Eddie, that is).

20. I don't know anything about this...

I'm a west-coaster, don't know anythingabout PA politics.

2. Depends on perception, I hear:

10. I know..I'm a different

animal. I don't see someone pushin' hilary as someone I would "enjoy" watching but that may just be me and Stephanie(for sure).

[housewolf]

19. Yeah, you're probably right about that 'perception thing...

I'm not such a Hillary-hater that I automatically proscribe nefarious motivations to everyone who speaks well of her. I can't help but see the positive in people - he authentically seems committed to her and her candidacy and his enthusiasm seems to be authentic and not contrived, I thought he did a good job for her.

She's not my choice of candidates but it's sort of like many things, you can love one the most and still appreciate fine traits of the other.

Thanks for your post!

3. Kick for Ed Rendell

He will surely deliver and put PA in the Hillary WIN column!!

[Cassandra]

7. He'll have to get his foot out of his mouth first.

[Chicken George]

A piece of cake.

He'll do it, count on it!

[TheDonkey]

4. I'm ashamed of Rendell and regret ever supporting his campaign.

He is race-baiting, ignorant, scum.

[Cha]

13. Well there ya go..that's the eddie

I'm use to. I don't switch around just cause he's schmoozin' with charlie rose.

9. What happened to Charlie Rose? Black eye and bandaid

on his head the last couple of times I've seen him.

[babylonsister]

18. He saved his new compter but killed his face. Really! Pothole. nt

[MadBadger]

12. I generally like Rendell.

[GoneOffShore]

15. I used to like him

Until he threw in with the casino interests and sold Philadelphia down the river.

He's desperate to get a job in Washington.

[AZBlue]

14. You enjoyed watching him support HRC's attempt to negate primaries and caucuses?

[housewolf]

22. I enjoyed watching an authentically enthusiasticallly supporter

of a presidential candidate support his candidate and not slander the opposing candidate. Thought it was a good half-hour of substantive cheer-leading even while I am a supporter of Obama. Thought it was a fine example politicing.

[Diane R]

16. This woman isn't one bit upset about how the media is treating Hillary...she deserves worse.

[Purveyor]

17. There was a time I admired Rendell, now he thinks he is some sort of 'mafia party thug'...

Piss off Rendell, you are just one reporters expose from 'scandal'...

Stay tuned...

[scheming daemons]

21. As a PA resident, let me say this... Fast Eddie is not the man you heard on Charlie Rose....

...he is a corrupt politician.


Don't put anything past him.


He will "fix" PA for Hillary if the polls get tight.... count on it.
