Ed Rendell has rightly earned a reputation for being blunt, unscripted, and somewhat of an unguided missile. More proof in the audio clip below where, after Rendell brushes off the idea that a floor fight in Denver would be a disaster for the Dems, the BBC reporter asks him: "on a scale of 1 to 10, Governor, how likely is it that Hillary Clinton will be president?"

There just a slight beat before Rendell responds, "I'd say it's about a 4 right now."
