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

Yeah The Conservative Cause is growing here in the belly of the beast. It's gonna cuase a lot of indigestion one of these days. Fact is I bet the close race c\did cause a lot of heartburn!

BTW check out my posts to a coupole of the other threads. I found it amusing that former AG Roy Zimmerman would claim Toomey's turnout was bought by Bit Money and Wall Street! I have it on tape.

The west went for Toomey, even Allegheny County. I am really diappointed...by the Specter victory, by the Santorum and Bush support of same, and by the fact that the 'east' of PA once again determined an election.

No matter what happens between now and November I will not hold my nose and vote for Specter...I have decided that I am sending a message...I will write in Toomey (no vote for a Dem, or Libertarian, or a Greenie, etc.).
