Specter Wins 51-49 Republican Senatorial Primary: live thread
4/27/2004 | self

Posted on 04/27/2004 9:10:16 AM PDT by rudy45

My apologies if a thread already exists. I did a search on "Toomey" and found nothing.

I arrived at my polling area (suburban Philadelphia) at 6:45 am to hand out palm cards. The weather is terrific this morning, but turnout (I thought) was light (I had to leave at 9:15, but will be back).

Actually, I have a good feeling about Pat.

We won Bryn Mawr 149-50. (smattering of applause, several hoots)




Complaining about 'wall street financiers' pouring money into race and 'flyers in church parking lots.'



It strikes me as a non-concession concession.


"I hope this does not ruin [this aides] reputation."


He thinks he lost.

And in 25 years watching politics, I've never seen anything like that. Very, very bizarre.

Oh, man....another late night. Go, Pat, Go!

Did you ever feel afraid to post an upbeat comment for fear of jinxing your guy, LOL.

Arlen, the idea that you're a fiscal conservative is harder to believe than your single bullet theory.

This nonsense was my main reservation in voting for Toomey. The Oswald theory is much stronger than the someone-on-the-grassy-knoll-visible-only-to-a-few-psychotics-did-it theory. And, agree with Specter or not, the Warren Comnmission was the last time Arlen took a strong unpopular stand on something.

I'll say here what I said over at Yahoo.
