Mendte: "Worst debate performance ever"

Former CBS3 anchor Larry Mendte, now with WPIX in New York, has been ripping into former U.S. Attorney Pat Meehan, who approved the federal probe that led to Mendte's conviction.

Former CBS3 anchor Larry Mendte, now with WPIX in New York, sure has a lot to say these days about former U.S. Attorney Pat Meehan, the Republican candidate in Delaware County's 7th Congressional District race.

With Mendte's wife, former Fox29 anchor Dawn Stensland, having decided not to run in the race, Mendte is attacking Meehan with his keyboard. Last night, the hashtag-happy Mendte offered a Twitter review of last month's debate between Meehan and Democrat Bryan Lentz, linking to Lentz's Web ad featuring Meehan's lowlights of the debate.

"Maybe the worst debate performance ever," Mendte wrote of Meehan, who as U.S. Attorney approved the federal probe that led to Mendte's conviction for hacking into Alycia Lane's e-mail account. (I don't know about worst performance "ever." This 2-minute gem from Democratic state House candidate John DeFrancisco in 2008 is certainly up there).

Mendte is back for seconds this morning, ripping into Meehan some more at The Philly Post.

But he's not bitter, folks. Nah, not at all.
