Former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell told CNNs Jessica Yellin today that, in 2008, he thought the Obama campaign was far too serious to make it to November, and hes still not sure the President will win this go around. In an interview on John King USA today, Rendell confessed that, while the President should win, he wasnt sure it would happen.

Do they take themselves too seriously? Yellin asked, to which Rendell said yes, and told an anecdote about how he made a joke about President Obamas flag pin on television once that earned him a stern phone call from David Axelrod. They never got a sense of humor, but they made it till November, he noted, smiling, though later adding that he was concerned. Im not sure hes going to win he should win, he told Yellin. He inherited the worse set of problems of any president in my lifetime, he asserted, but Rendell advised the President to not run so much on his record but, rather, shift to stressing the future.
