God to love the liberal journalist who wrote this. Bush and Specter lead, and voters are angry with incumbents?
To: republicanwizard
...Kerry voters had different concerns: 42 percent said the economy and jobs were the top issue, while terrorism and homeland security issues finished fifth, at 8 percent... Kerry supporters appear to be F'n clueless. God help us if these people ever get control of this nation.

Bush and Specter lead, and voters are angry with incumbents? Probably has more to do with Rendell, considering they asked about the condition of the state, ergo state politics.

LOL! Liberals are in deep denial. They think the country is ready to throw out President Bush! Keep dreaming...

Dubya leading polls in PA, OH, and MI and it's not even April yet. Perhaps they shouldn't refer to Kerry as a "challenger" any longer.

"""The new poll, sponsored by The Patriot-News, WGAL-TV and other media organizations, shows Bush with what poll director G. Terry Madonna termed "a narrow lead," 46 percent to 40 percent. """
Imagine what the call a 1% lead for kerry, a "wide magin"?
Every percentage point ahead for bush, gives more importance to Nader's campaign. The far left will feel safe to vote for Nader, this will make the exinction of the democrat party sooner.
To: Willie Green
The reporterete is probably trying to link specter's liberalism problems to bush for guilt by association.
There is little credibility that Bush would surrender to scotish law.
To: republicanwizard
Terry Madonna is respected by the PA Media and is treated as an impartial 'political scientist'. Nevertheless, you can tell that he's a Democrat and that he's pulling for Kerry. How do you suppose that he would describe the 46/40 poll if it were Kerry leading instead of Bush? I rest my case.

No, he didn't...I'm a Pennsylvanian, so it hurt...
To: Willie Green
At the rate Kerry is going, I really could care less. Obviously, Bush is supporting Specter, so as a proud Pennsylvania Republican, my inclination is to support my President as our forebearers supported Lincoln.
To: squidly
I'm worried about Ohio...
To: squidly
I thought we were behind in OH and MI?

Madonna is a jackass, a failed Democratic politician.
To: TJC
We are ahead in Missouri, and it should be safe for Bush, even if Kerry picks Gephardt. However, Ohio, because of job losses, may be more problematic.
To: republicanwizard
If Specter looses the primary Bush will support the winner, whoever that is.
Rove is gunning to destroy the democrats, not re-elect specter.

Every percentage point ahead for bush, gives more importance to Nader's campaign. The far left will feel safe to vote for Nader, this will make the exinction of the democrat party sooner.Everybody keeps thinking that Kerry will collapse before the Democratic Convention and someone (Hillary) will sweep in and take the nomination. Hogwash! Convention rules prevent Kerry's delegates from defecting until AFTER the first ballot -- and Kerry ALREADY HAS ENOUGH DELEGATES to secure his nomination.
Kerry's campaign will collapse AFTER the convention, and as you say, Nader will scoop up the defectors. And if Bush is in a position to win Pennsylvania in September, despite all of this state's economic problems, then Kerry is toast nationally. It will mean his "message" is not getting any traction.

I know Longterm, but either way we win. If Specter wins, he will OWE Bush, big time, as Cheney would say. If Toomey wins, we still win.
So, cheer up. As long as we support the winner, we'll be fine, and Pennsylvanians can be proud.

The Rendell machine in Philadelphia turned out more voters in black districts than the census showed living there, men, women and children.
