Lynn Swann is down in the polls, but his bid to unseat Gov. Ed Rendell is getting a boost from national GOP groups and a prospective presidential visit.

About fricken time. With Specter looking like a ghost - the next governor might appoint a senator very soon...

Bush may be down in the polls, but candidates aren't afraid to have him campaign for them. Compare this to Al Gore and the kiss-of-death Kos endorsements.

AWESOME! Money will pour into Swanni's account with this fundraiser and should give him a big boost. No matter what some folks say on here and in the MSM, the President is still popular when he goes out for fundraisers and visits to Americans outside the beltway.

Those of us who are not 'one-issue' types still support this President and will continue to do so. His trip to Iraq and press conference the next day should be the launching pad for all of us to get energized and shut down the DemocRATs this fall. We cannot afford to let the DemocRAT party of international appeasement take over the Senate or House this year.

I made a small contribution to Swann's campaign...as I did for Thune. I'm hoping the same thing happens in Pennsylvania as it did in North Dakota!!

I received a fund-raising letter from him, and was not impressed. The letter was quite generic, and should have been targeted since a Pennsylvania race for Swann would have gotten my name only from Keyes or Luksik races. Emphasis on controlled spending doesn't exactly inspire an out of stater to contribute.

Swann in Trouble; Bush to the Rescue

May? Sounds like a done deal to me.

I sure as hell hope so. Fred Karl has been far too ready to pull the plug on conservative candidates at the state level. Swann would be a terrific addition to the team, not least because we need to break the Democrat stranglehold on blacks, which among other things demeans and disadvantages them and keeps them down on the plantation. It's a corrupt shell game that needs to be exposed, and the best way to do it is to promote solid black conservatives to positions of prominence.

Thank you, Mr. President.

Go, Lynn Swann, go.
