If Casey wins, Pennsylvania will lose a committed Republican Conservative that will continue to support constructionist judges and protect the unborn.

Casey will do no such things. He will defer to the Democrat majority for his votes on judicial nominees and he has recently demonstrated that his pro-life views are nothing like his father's ---- meaning he will vote pro-choice if the party asks him.

The final, and most important result of a Casey victory would be an emboldened Democratic Party that unseats a sitting conservative going into 2008. It will become their rallying cry.

Yes, I fear Casey might wind up a stooge like Harry Reid. Reid is pro-life but when Kennedy and Leahy tell him to oppose pro-life justices you know what the vote will be. Reid's church is highly opposed to gay marriage but Reid calls those who are opposed to marriage protection legislation devisive.

Reid, like Casey, is a political puppet (I would say "political whore", but it's too early).

I read FR every day but can't figure out what "bttt" stands for. Can you help with a translation?
Thx

Can anyone name a freshman Democrat that did not become a stooge for the party?

One name....anybody?

Tell that to the crazies on the PA Board who are "real conservatives" and want to see Santorum defeated.

You might be right, but did he buck the party when he was a freshman?!

If he loses, the face of compassionate conservatism will be gone.

So much the better for finding the long-lost face of true (i.e. get the government out of my face and out of my wallet) conservatism.

Here's my question: Are these individuals who are poleed registered voters? If so,reason for concern,if not,still a chance.
I'll pray for the chance that polls are fixed to the agenda of the left.

Yah, Zell Miller.

And, to a lesser extent, Ben Nelson.

But they are the exceptions to the rule.

Yes, he didn't even serve a full term. He was appointed to the seat after Paul Coverdell died a year and a half into his term. He served for a few months, won the rest of Coverdell's term in his own right in 2000, and served till 2004.

Previous to that, he had served as Governor of Georgia from '91 till '99, and Lt. Governor '77 till '91.

Love him or hate him,...

I don't love or hate him; I like him. BUT, many of us remember how he campaigned for that despicabale Arlen Specter against a great Conservative Pat Toomey two years ago.

And, thank you very much Santorum lovers, but I'll "get over it" when I get good and ready.
