Gov. Rendell Would Accept Cabinet Position
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) ―
Gov. Ed Rendell says
he would be interested in serving in a prospective Obama administration as a Cabinet
member once he leaves his state office.
In a talk-show appearance on WITF-TV in Harrisburg on Thursday night,
Rendell said he "absolutely" is interested in an eventual appointment as head
of the federal departments of energy or transportation.
Rendell has repeatedly said he intends to complete his
second term, which expires in January 2011, and is not interested
in becoming the running mate for Democratic presidential
nominee-apparent
Barack Obama.
