Let Us All Bow Our Heads and Pray for Governor Rendell

If anything happens to Rendell, Catherine Baker Knoll becomes our Guv.

Catherine Baker Knoll Throws Hissyfit at Clinton Rally

Lieutenant Governor Catherine Baker Knoll is going to have see the pope again! After being overlooked during a Pittsburgh campaign rally for Hillary Clinton, she exploded when Allegheny County Exec Dan Onorato and Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl forgot to introduce her.

"They never recognize the lieutenant governor. These two men can't stand women. You know what? I have loafed with this president and with Hillary and their beautiful daughter Chelsea for 25 years. That's long before he was the governor -- that's governor of Arkansas."

A commenter at Capitol Ideas has posted this link to the hilarious audio.

Catherine Baker Knoll to Crash Bennett Fundraiser

What would a week be without a Sam Bennett update?

Keystone Politics tells us she's now making the rounds in the beltway, trying desperately to grab some dough. Crooks and Liars, a beltway blog, tried to puff her candidacy. But even there, a buzz saw of complaints from local Dems followed a post telling us all about Sammy's favorite song.

Don't worry, Sammy hasn't forgotten about the little people. BethlehemDem tells us she's having a two hour fundraiser on Sunday at Jeanette Eichenwald's house. For just $1,000, you can be a host! Her special guest? Catherine Baker Knoll! Knoll is planning on crashing a nearby funeral anyway. Apparently, she has new business cards. Maybe she'll take Sammy with her.

Before Bennett announced her campaign, Congressman Charlie Dent was widely viewed as vulnerable. But now, thanks to a six month comedy of errors, CQ rates Charlie's seat as "Republican favored."
