Has PA Dem Governor Endorsed GOP's Rick Santorum?

Here's an interesting item from Pennsylvania. Gov. Ed Rendell, Democrat, has given what can only be described as a glowing endorsement to incumbent Rick Santorum, a Republican in a very tough reelection battle:

FLASH! BULLETIN! URGENT! THIS JUST IN!
Democrat Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell has endorsed Republican U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum for re-election over Democrat challenger Bob Casey Jr.

How else could one interpret these Rendell remarks:

"Rick Santorum has proven that he gets the job done. Time and time again he has come through," Mr. Rendell said in an interview conducted by the Trib's Salena Zito for a July 31 Weekly Standard magazine commentary on the Santorum-Casey race.

"I will eventually campaign with Casey. But, no, you won't see me attack Santorum. I work well with him ... . When it comes to Pennsylvania, Santorum delivers."

Note that Fast Eddie said he'll campaign "with Casey," not for Casey.

Suh-LAPPPP!

Wow. Let's hope the Santorum campaign can take this and run with it.
