Gov. Ed Rendell publicly lobbied Barack Obama earlier this week to select Joe Biden his vice president.
So not surprisingly this morning's announcement pleased the once avid Hillary Clinton supporter.
"The governor thinks it's a great pick and that it will help Obama in Pennsylvania," his spokesman Chuck Ardo told PolitickerPA.com.
Rendell said at a press conference Tuesday that Biden has "the most experience in foreign affairs, the most experience in terrorism and national security."
He also said southeast Pennsylvania is very familiar with the senator from Delaware because his political ads have run in the Philadelphia media market for years.
"We've been watching Joe's ads for 31 years," he said.
