PA-07: Anyonmous Colleague On Weldon: "He Has A Slightly Unhinged Quailty To Him"
In his web column for Time, Joe Klein profiles the race in PA’s 7th district between Curt Weldon and his democratic challenger Joe Sestak. The article features some standard analysis of the tough fight that Weldon is facing, but what jumps out is a quote attributed to an unnamed colleague of Weldon’s from the House. According to this souce, Weldon, “can be absolutely brilliant…but there’s also a slightly unhinged quality to him.” Klein goes on to list the “slightly” abnormal statements and positions staked out by Weldon over the last few years, they include his insistence—along with Rick Santorum—that we have found Iraq’s WMDs and that the Pentagon Unit “Able Danger” identified Mohammed Atta years before the 9/11 attacks. The article also has Weldon bragging that he has, “been to every major American disaster in the last 20 years.” Insert your own Bush joke here.
