The Impaler Tue, 18 Nov 2008 17:03:39 +0000 http://www.philebrity.com/?p=16941#comment-7720 I don't see this happening. Maybe in '12 or during a '10 post off term election cabinet shuffle (especially for something like DOE or DOT ... then you got the problem of current nominees thinking, why do I want this job if big Ed's coming in two years?). Rendell's name has been consistently floating, but he was saying he wasn't interested in a post at this point. That was all before Knoll's passing leaving Scarnati in the Gov slot if Rendell leaves. This looks more like the NYT's dream team rather than a record of people who are having substantive conversations with the transition team. Just shows you the Times is politically illiterate when it comes to PA, among other places. Remember they were predicting a squeaker in this state similar to what NC went through.
