Ed Rendell Is All WTF On Debate

Ed Rendell was on 6 ABC’s post-debate show last night, and man was he pissed! I certainly don’t think last night’s debate is going to blow up the world or anything, but Rendell certainly seemed to; he asked Monica Malpass, “What is wrong with America?”

Naturally, Rendell was talking about the first 45 minutes to an hour of the debate, which featured questions exclusively on Hillary’s lie about dodging sniper fire, Barack Obama’s pastor, “bitter” Pennsylvanians and some dude from the Weather Underground who supports Obama.

Monica Malpass Wears A Low-Cut Dress Unlike Any Other 45-Year-Old Anchor

Yesterday, the news broke that Monica Malpass’ ex-fiance was suing the 6 ABC anchor to get his engagement ring back.

Steve Thorne filed a lawsuit in Common Pleas Court alleging that he bought the ring for $78,000 at a Yardley jewelry store on June 15. After dating for just about four months, the couple became engaged. But, the lawsuit says, three weeks later Thorne broke off the engagement. Malpass wanted more children, and he did not, despite getting a reverse vasectomy.

Malpass, you may remember, was previously married to David Cutler, the real estate developer. The two had a nasty divorce a few years back, and the lawsuit says Thorne agreed to keep it quiet so Malpass wouldn’t have to endure the same problems as last time. It also says during that, during the last split, “Malpass lost her job for a three-week period as a result of the turmoil.”

So why all the fuss over, well, Monica Malpass? I was unsure as well, until a reader sent me a link to the photo above from Phillymag. And now I understand.
