Why not Fast Eddie for VP - Gov. Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania

[LynneSin]

The guy has charisma and he'll help us carry the state of Pennsylvania (he overwhelmingly defeated the repuke in his 2002 governor campaign even after a nasty primary against supposively heir-apparent to the state house Bob Casey Jr.)

Fast Eddie gets the vote out in the Philadelphia area which a high voter turnout will ensure a win in our state. Plus Ed Rendell did a fabulous job of turning around a dump like Philadelphia and make it a great city (which Street is doing a good job of screwing up again).

So what do you think?

1. No, He's The Wrong Image...Gravelly Voice Easterner..

He would not fly...

2. I love Ed Rendell!

Don't know anymore than listening to him speak, but you are right he is very charismatic.

3. I love Fast Eddie

As a former Philadelphian (can you really ever be former), I have been a fan of Rendell for a long time. But I think that Pennsylvania needs him more than the rest of the country does. Balances out the fact that a guy like Scumtorum is in the Senate.

4. Not the worst idea.

I have no problem with this. He could help in the midwest maybe. PA is very important.

5. Ed Rendell is reponsible for the Bush residency

He talked Gore into stepping down. The last thing we need is him within one-thousand miles of Kerry on election day.

8. He must be a very persuasive guy!

All it took some convincing words from Fast Eddie and Gore gave up? Do you have some evidence to back this up?

6. Expect him to be booed by Gore supporters at the convention.

He's worse for the Democrats than Rove.

7. He hasn't finished the first half of his first term as governor

It is a little early to be considering him as the VP nominee.
