Specter easily won his home base of Philadelphia and its surrounding suburbs, while Toomey scored a surprise upset in Allegheny County, which includes Pittsburgh.

I am tired of people calling specter a moderate. Specture is a liberal. He has democrats working for him.

In the eyes of the partisan media a "moderate" is a RINO.

If anything, this is a wake up call in that the "moderate" position is NOT the default position. Conservative positions win votes.

Even with an endorsemnt by Bush, and Specter touting his mere seniority, Specter still had to eak out a win from a challenger who should not have been a threat. Rove should take this as a lesson and a wake up.

We need more conservatives across the board in order to marginalize the frauds like specter.

(I still laugh with specter refering to scotish law during the clinton impeachment. Seriously considering "not proven" as a third option betrayed his oath in the senate.)

It is good that moderats are dying out. Moderates enabled and emboldened the left to get us into the messes we have to clean up today.

Specter won because of the Demoncrat cross-over voters that re-registered as Republicans to hijack the election.

Write in Toomey in the fall.

Damn, damn, triple damn!

Here in York County, we delivered for Republicans; ALL of them.

What a depressing result.

I think the last 3 days of Sphincter ads, where he stated that "a vote against him was a vote against the Republican Party", cinched it for a lot of moderate voters who hadn't made up their minds to vote Conservative, for Toomey.

Here's my post yesterday, on that subject, and the reply:
