The money line:

"With Specter in line to chair Judiciary, any conservative would prefer Senator Hoeffel to Senator Specter. If the choice is between 53 GOP seats and Chairman Specter (who sunk the Robert Bork nomination in 1987) or 52 Republicans and Chairman Jon Kyl of Arizona (ACU rating 97 percent), it's not a tough call for anyone who cares about the courts."

And, given the fact that Pat Toomey is actually less vulnerable to a Joe Hoeffel candidacy than RINO Arlen Specter, it's a win-win situation for conservatives (and moderates, for that matter) in Pennsylvania to pull the lever for Toomey. GO, PAT, GO!

The best way to get rid of these RINOs is through the primary system. I hope Toomey wins -- it will not only get rid of Specter, it will send a message to other RINOs that this could happen to them.

From the ToomeyBlog.com,

"If we beat Specter, we won't have any trouble with wayward Republicans anymore," said Stephen Moore, president of the Club for Growth, which has spent nearly $1 million on advertisements criticizing Mr. Specter. The club's members have contributed about $800,000 to Mr. Toomey's campaign.

"It serves notice to Chafee, Snowe, Voinovich and others who have been problem children that they will be next," Mr. Moore said, referring to three moderate Republican senators: Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island, Olympia J. Snowe of Maine and George V. Voinovich of Ohio.

Beating Specter has more benefits than just one conservative vote, it scares the liberal republicans!
