Ed Rendell's in trouble, for something he accidentally said into an open microphone this week about Gov. Janet Napolitano, the nominee to be Secretary of Homeland Security:
"Janet's perfect for that job. Because for that job, you have to have no life. Janet has no family. Perfect. She can devote, literally, 19-20 hours a day to it," said Rendell, whose comments were picked up by the open mic.My first reaction? Let's just say there are, uh, things he could have said candidly about Napolitano that would have gotten him into much, much more trouble. Something along the lines of the lead of this piece, for instance, which sounds a lot like something Eddie would say. Posted by Stephen Silver at December 3, 2008 10:43 PM
A friend of mine used to be here neighbor and has said the main message of the piece you linked too.
But how is that different from Janet Reno.
