Is Rick toast?
To: Aussie Dasher
Today, the Pennsylvanian is the third-ranking Republican in the Senate. But the Republican Revolution is over, and he faces one of the toughest re-election campaigns in the country BS .. Rick is closing in on the poll numbers
Just wait till Casey, jr. has to debate him

The Vote in PA will come down to a Labor Union Lackey against a Pro Life Republican that does not believe the Federal Government is the answer to all of our needs

The Republicans have come a long way from the days of the Republican Revolution.

Is Junior a sure thing to disappoint his backers? No sure what you mean ??
One of the things Casey is running on is his pro-life stance as a way to get voters away from Rick
Casey, jr. is nothing like his father and will vote in line with the likes of Chuckie, Hellary, Reid, Durbin , Kennedy and Kerry on EVERY issue
Plus he comes off as out of his league when his speaks about issues
Which is why he's avoiding Rick big time
The problem Rick is having this election are the "true" conservatives up state
But that may be changing since the poll numbers are much closer

You have answered my question, thanks.
I meant to say, will Rick cream him?
I have been hoping Junior is not ready for prime time and apparently, he isn't.

Well, no offense, but given this kind of campaigning:
he boasted to local reporters about how he'd fetched $500,000 from federal taxpayers to build one of the most luxurious polar-bear exhibits outside Arctic climes.
I could maybe see why "true" conservatives would perhaps need a bit of extra convincing this time around.

But the Republican Revolution is over Only because it's been abandoned to the assumption Americans want and need big spending governance, not because its assumptions were invalid. Indeed, the Republican Revolution continues to pay dividends in the economy and the culture of today, even if cowardice has caused many who brought it about to retreat from it.

It's August. I suspect that alot of the discontent will be put aside soon as the possible alternatives loom larger.

Michael Barone, THE nation's best political analyst said on Hannity today Santorum has a good shot of making a come back in this race. He's brought his approval numbers from 36% in the spring to 52% now through an aggressive retail campaign. This race has tightened from double digits to about 6 points, and it has to be said that despite looking grim at the outset the momentum now favors Santorum. Barone said Santorum has carried out a remarkably effective campaign even as Casey looks more and more like a light-weight who won't even debate Santorum on local PA. TV.

They are both considered to be pro life and pro gun, though I am sure that Casey will not be able to vote that way once in office.
But you don't know Santorum if you think that he is a principled conservative.
He's flip flopped almost as much as Kerry. Did you read the article and his justification for spending $500 grand on a zoo exhibit?
He has no regard for the Constitution. He will spend your money to buy votes just like any other pandering self serving politician.

The poll numbers are 'closer' because Rick paid to get a Green Party candidate on the ballot (maybe). He is still 11 points behind Casey in a head to head matchup.
