Toomey lost by less than a percent in swing vote. He would have handily beaten Hoeffel in the general election. Bush and Santorum succumbed to party protocol....placing it above principle. I won't reward that with my vote.

In a blue state like California, New York, or Pennsylvania, you don't put principle above party just to keep Democrats out of power or by electing Conservatives.

Toomey hailed from a Democratic district......yet he won handily. He would have won the state....and added a solid conservative vote to the Senate Majority...and removed cantankerous Arlen, who you can't count on for anything. It was the most STUPID move I've ever seen.
