Man, Ed Rendell is so screwed -- literally.
I
don't normally listen to Opie & Anthony looking for breaking news,
but astonishingly that's what I just got. A few minutes ago, the cast
of the show on Sirius XM radio were interviewing Kristin Davis -- not
the one from Sex and the City, the former Manhattan Madam who
spent four months in Rikers in connection with the Eliot Spitzer hooker
scandal from last year. There's been quite a bit of speculation that
her operation at one time serviced another high-profile governor,
besides Spitzer, and up until now she's been largely quiet about just
who that governor is.
Well, during the interview, she admitted
that someone she called "Governor X" employed her services at least ten
times during a year-and-a-half period. She apparently wrote his name
down on a piece of paper and showed it to Opie and Anthony, who then
proceeded to spend the next ten minutes dropping hints that a
4-year-old could've deciphered.
"What, did he pay her in coal and steel?"
"I guess he had a little filly on the side."
"Did he used to be an Eagles scout?"
The whole thing ended with show regular Jim Norton making a hysterical
Freudian slip during the plugs for his upcoming gigs.
"I'll be in Pennsylvania this weekend," he said, then corrected himself
to the sound of everyone's laughter.
Bottom line: power up the phony contrition machine and the media
pile-on -- things are about to get interesting.
