[BeyondGeography]

http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entries/ed-rendell-obama-team-going-too-far-on?ref=fpb

All the evidence points to Bain sinking Romney, but Fast Eddie's doubling down on...whatever it is he stands for.

[truebrit71]

1. Fuck Ed Rendell...

...or should I double down on that too...

[marmar]

2. Boy, this dude makes you long for Zell Miller.

[Coexist]

26. +1

[Dawson Leery]

3. As with Cory Booker, Fast Eddie must have connections to Bain's dirty money.

[Tom Rinaldo]

5. We know about Booker's "debt" to Bain, sure looks like Ed has attachments also n/t

[Dawson Leery]

12. Correct.

Does anyone have any idea as to what those links may be?

[flamingdem]

4. Goes to show they're being effective

Rendell called the Whamublance

[Ikonoklast]

6. Fast Eddie still mad that the DLC is dying off.

Gravy Train no longer running past Eddie's bank account.

[louis-t]

7. No, they're not.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

8. Is Rendell collecting money for Bain in Bermuda?

little post office box?

[JoePhilly]

9. Ed only has a job if the race is CLOSE.

He's shaving points.

[enough]

10. Why does he always do this? What is he hoping to achieve for himself? (nt)

[PCIntern]

18. I know Ed REALLY well...

you may THINK you know what's going on with him, but believe me, you have no idea. Creepy is not even the word...

[Ruby the Liberal]

20. Any way of finding out his ties to Bain?

Like which paid "advisory" services he does for them?

[PCIntern]

23. In light of stuff this week,

Ed has a LOT to worry about...

I see more satellite dishes in his future...

[enough]

24. I knew several young lawyers in and around the Public Defender's office back when Ed was DA.

They agreed with your assessment (and still do). Other words were also used.

[nc4bo]

11. So much squealing tells me a nerve has been hit.

What other explanation could there possibly be?

[Arkana]

13. Son of a bitch, Ed, SHUT THE FUCK UP!

My GOD, can we have a LITTLE FUCKING MESSAGE DISCIPLINE AROUND HERE?!

[NYC Liberal]

14. Yet no statements disproving them.

The more Camp Romney complains about Bain criticisms, the harder Obama should press it. Just means it's working.

[Douglas Carpenter]

16. many if not most prominent Democatic Party leaders have been on very friendly terms with the same

sort of predatory capitalist that Bain represents. They don't want to piss off their friends and loved ones.

[rufus dog]

17. he doth protest too much, methinks

We are watching you Eddie, something seems to causing your panties to bunch up creating a great deal of discomfort.

[Ruby the Liberal]

19. STFU, Ed.

Lead or get out of the way. Maybe Cory Booker cares what you think, but we want to know about this.

[progressivebydesign]

21. Fuck Ed. Aww poor little Romney, we're asking about missing data, possible lies to the SEC...

Amazing that these fucks don't say a word about the flithy attacks on President Obama constantly. The people who are whining about this seem to be okay with the ads that intimated that President Obama is a terrorist sympathizer, socialist, Muslim, enemy. We're supposed to back off something pretty damn clear cut?? I don't think so.

When the assholes at CU and the Koch Bros start pouring their billion into FULL OUT ATTACK ADS, is Ed going to go to the media and say that they're going too far??? Is the Obama campaign going to ask Romney and his cohorts to apologize?? No way.

Fuck them all... seriously...

[JaneQPublic]

22. Get out a set of clean sheets.

Eddie Rendell wet the bed again.

[TwilightGardener]

25. Odd. Republicans never ask each other to stand down or ratchet back their attacks.

[spanone]

27. we'll see eddie, we'll see. meanwhile keep pretending you're a democrat

[catbyte]

28. Ed Rendell sucks

Sorry, I just can't get any more eloquent than that. I always roll my eyes every time he shows up on some MSNBC panel. He and Harold Ford, Jr. should just go away.

29. stfu you dino baggage! (@ Rendell) n/t

[southernyankeebelle]

30. Rendell isn't god so shut up. I think Obama is his own man and so far has done pretty well without

Rendell or Booker or even house dem's. Screw them. Obama wants to see what is in his tax forms and I bet he doesn't care about Bain. I think the man hasn't paid taxes in years. That will be a nail in the coffin for sure.

[myrna minx]

31. I wonder what lurks beneath the breathless protests.

[soccer1]

32. I believe the Obama campaign should......

raise questions and ask for transparency regarding the Bain issue and releasing of past taxes.I don't think it benefits Obama if his campaign people accuse Romney of legal wrongdoing until all the facts come out. Let others in the media say what they want but how the Obama campaign people present themselves as they address these issues, matters, IMO.
