Uh-oh.
I don't understand PA but how can santorum fall like this? A sitting senator has a lot of power to make friends and supporters.
Oh BTW, Kilgore was way ahead of Kaine and we all know how that turned out.
But someone has to keep the GOP failure uber alles going.
bad news ping.
Santorum is toast baring a miracle.
He got a good return on that Arlen investment, didnt he?
I have a feeling the gang of 14 would consider santorum
extra extra extra extroadinary circumstances.
Casey got the most votes last election and is living off his dad's name. This race will be non competitive probably lose by about 12 points and Casey's coatails will kick out gerlach.
Last election was our last chance to ever elect a conservative from pa. Toomey would have gone up against hoeffel who had very low name id. Expect someone like Tom Ridge to try and go after Specter's seat when he retires.
And then there were 54.
May I suggest that the PA GOP nominate someone other than Santorum? They obviously don't support him.
It's a bit early to throw in the towel. Still, this will be a tough battle.
Maybe the Dems will get a clue here....topple the GOP majority by nominating pro-life Democrats.
Better to lose with honor than to win with shame.
Santorum has polled weak against Casey for an extended period of time with no signs of life.
Rick screwed his own pooch when he threw Toomey under the bus.
He's lost a lot of the right, he never had the left, and the center will not hold.
Boy that support for Specter is really coming back to bite Rick in the backside. I wonder how much of these poll numbers are disaffected conservatives and how much is people just picking Casey because they liked his daddy?
It's suicide day on FR!!!!
Rasmussen is not the most reliable pollster in the world.
Pennsylvania Democrats suffered a resounding defeat on Tuesday with the ousting of their "esteemed" judge, Russ Nigro. The taxpayers of PA are disgusted with greedy, self-serving politicos--especially the breed from which Casey comes. We are in a mood to throw the rascals out. Any Democrat is fair game--and most especially, a Democrat who is riding on the coattails of his dead father.
Casey has about the chance of a snowball in Hell, where all his democrat predecessors are trying to build snow castles in the fiery inferno.
Santorum's an idiot. He is an arrogant, self-absorbed SOB. He earned the nickname Rooster Rick for all the crowing he did about himself before he entered politics. Frankly, I won't be that sad to see him go. I wish that Toomey would run against him in the primary.
He has my PA. vote.
I don't trust polls.
