Rendell gives his speech...and then...
goes on Fox News with Hannity and plays buddy-buddy with him, complaining about media bias during the primaries and claiming Fox was the most fair. This is the kind of shit that needs to stop. You don't see any of the Republican operatives deliberately undermining McCain's campaign.

3. There's a reason he's known as "Fast Eddie" here in PA...
And I think you just learned why.

4. 4 flip flops in one day
I swear the man has multiple personality disorder. I'm beginning to think it's all too common among a certain wing of alleged "Democrats".

7. And you know what's strange about this?
Edited on Tue Aug-26-08 08:16 PM by TTUBatfan2008
I was checking the networks to see if ANY of them were covering Sebelius. NOT ONE was covering her speech, despite endless speculation about her being a possible VP candidate. Unbelievable. Even more unbelievable was putting it on Fox and seeing Rendell sucking up to Hannity and complaining about media favoritism (during the primaries). Well he's right except about the wrong election. Right now the media completely favors John McCain and he is feeding that with this bullshit civil war crap.

5. Did not see it
I believe the Clinton supporters felt very bad about NBC (Chris Matthews, Don Imus, etc), though

14. I don't know what he said, but
I think Democrats should BOYCOTT FOX News. Or, if they appear, have their own talking points... so there is a constant message (repeated) about that "News" network. As is is, they get sucked in to whatever the FOX message is; and, I assume it is stirring up bad vibes RE: Obama/Hillary.

17. I have a better idea. Buycott the conventions entirely
I refuse to waste one more heartbeat on that woman and her surrogates. Their intent could not be more clear. They intend to sabotage this in every way possible. We have to get past this convention bullshit and then make the big push to get Obama over the top, with no help form the Clintons and their brain-dead DLC pals.

6. That's because republicans know that this is war. Dems think that it's just a game,
you know "just politics." The GOP is run like an army, ordered chain of command, dissent (mutiny, treason) is not tolerated. We dems function like a small town PTA.

9. The oddest thing about this campaign has been some Clinton people becoming Faux promoters. That
should tell them something if they think clearly. Who does Faux want to hurt? Democrats.

"TNR TV: Fairbanks Ventures Into The 'Hillary Suite'

Yesterday I made it into the "Hillary Suite," an airy 11th-floor apartment downtown that serves as a staging ground, hospitality suite, and venting safe-space for all different stripes of pro-Hillary delegates. While I was there, I chatted with Christopher Nichols, a Hillary delegate from Menlo Park, California. "I would say 60 percent are rational and have moved on, and the other 40 percent still have their arms folded," he told me. Take a look below. Behind him, you'll see the suite's wall of Hillary signs (plus a donation box) next to the TV, which is often tuned to Fox News. "

10. Rendell abandoned the recount in Florida.
"You don't see any of the Republican operatives deliberately undermining McCain's campaign." No you don't, and you didn't.

13. After you shake hands with Ed Rendell, count your fingers
Just read Ricochet by Richard Feldman, a former gun lobbyist for the NRA. When Feldman tried to work with Gov. Rendell and others for handgun safety legislation that all Americans could live with, Rendell threw Feldman under the bus and left him to the wolves.
