Tweety in Philly?

You know, this isn’t as crazy as it sounds - I mean, not as crazy as Arnold Schwarzenegger. He was a Senate staffer, a presidential speechwriter and a top aide to Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill. The problem with Tweety is, he has no coherent political philosophy:
IS CABLE-TV host Chris Matthews running for a Pennsylvania U.S. Senate seat in 2010?
A prominent Democrat tells Clout that Matthews has picked out a house in Center City to establish state residency. Matthews himself says he’s “90 percent” committed to running for the seat, now held by Arlen Specter, according to the source.
We checked in with Gov. Rendell, whom Matthews admires.
“That’s news to me,” Rendell said. “All I know is he told me he’s seriously considering it, but has not in any way said it’s a go. I thought he told me his timetable [for a decision] was [next] summer.”
A feature story on Politico.com yesterday said Matthews is house-hunting in Philly and “discussing quitting MSNBC as proof of his intense interest,” according “NBC colleagues, political operatives and friends.”
