"No way will I vote for Scottish Law Arlen.." and pro-abortion Arlen, pro-gay marriage Arlen, pro- gun control Arlen etc. etc. etc.

Count three more votes for Clymer, though I don't think he has a chance.

I know Arlen will win but his support is very unenthusiastic compared to Clymer's.

I drive about 500 miles/ week for my job covering Lackawanna, Luzerne, Lycoming, Montour, Columbia, Montour, and Schuylkill counties and Clymer signs out number Specter signs at least 10 to 1.

In the Carbondale (Lackawanna county) area someone hand wrote "pro life" on Clymer's signs. This is a very pro life area.

Anyone other than Specter and PA would be a toss up this year in the Senate... like it or not. Specter is going to close with close to if not over 60% of the vote and keep the Senate in the hands of the R's.

Thanks to Jack out there in Ill. and other states where there are loses, risking any locked seat in the Senate would have been foolish.

You don't cut off your nose to spite your face, even if the nose has warts.

Don't do this. I know the temptation is great but electing a Democrat does our cause more harm than reelecting Spector.

Have you stopped to consider the motives of Constitution Party Candidates? What motivates them? They know they don't have a chance of being elected. They can only throw an election to a Democrat.

Why don't they run in Republican primaries? Many of them would be occupying offices right now but they don't want to do it. They'd rather pretend to be self righteous and they're too good to run as Republicans. They are flawed human beings, as well.

Yes and many pro-life votes will go to Clymer in the Butler county area too. Unfortunately the Pennsylvania pro-life movement showed its' political weakness when it couldn't turn out enough voters for Toomey. It seems a fait accompli that a commited pro-abortion politician will be the next chair of the Senate Judiciary committee.

It's been said numerous times and that portrayal of Specter's single bullet theory wasn't true the first time it was said and it still isn't true.

Source please?
