Transcribed from antiterrorism section of audio (at about 5 minutes ) on linked page:

Or hear about Social Security, antiterrorism measures, Amtrak, health care and his leadership style

Anyone care to translate?

Casey's more boring than Al Bore !!

I wouldn't have believed it possible but since the debate I'm certain.

Send a letter to

or another PA newspaper and spread the word.

CASEY IS AN EMPTY SUIT MEDIOCRITY ...

A letter I wrote.
----

Editor,

I've appreciated Senator Santorum as one of our nation's best Senators, on many
issues and causes: Articulate and correct in defending life; sensible and pro-taxpayer
in supporting the Bush tax cuts that helped make 6 million jobs in the last 4 years.
But most importantly, Santorum's actions and his July speech on describing the global terrorist threat
as rooted in Islamicist fascist extremism show that he fully understands the war we are
in and is supporting the right policies to win it.

It boggles my mind that the excellent, articulate, hard-working conservative Senator
Rick Santorum is being bested in polls by an empty suit mediocrity.
I would ask Pennsylvania voters: Please vote to keep Santorum,
not just for the sake of your state, but for the sake of our country.
This country needs Rick Santorum.

Casey has had an easy campaign: Play safe, don't make mistakes and watch Santorum go down.
But even that task he's done poorly - in each debate, Santorum outshone him on knowledge of the issues, articulateness, and specificity. In other arenas, Casey babbles incoherently on national security issues.
Casey is a liberal mediocrity who is hiding being incoherence masked as moderation, much like Carter in 1976; and Casey like Carter is running a fuzzball campaign that merely relied on negatives on the other side to coast to victory.

Unfortunately Santorum has alienated many in Pa. with his active support of Sen. Specter over Toomy. Republicans are still peeved and this small minority may be the nail in Santorum's coffin -- if the election is a squeaker.

Hopefully this bloc of voters will come to their senses when they realize how unbearable the alternative would be.

"Unfortunately Santorum has alienated many in Pa. with his active support of Sen. Specter over Toomy. "

EVEN THOUGH TOOMEY STRONGLY SUPPORTS AND ENDORSES SANTORUM NOW?!?

ARRRGH! This is mind-boggling.

Pro-tax-cut, Schumer/Hillary/Kennedy sockpuppet and empty suit mediocrity Liberal Bob Casey Jr will beat out one of our nation's best Senators, because that conservative Senator put a personal relationship with a colleague above ideological purity 2 years ago ...
That is such bad bad thinking on so many levels, I get a migraine just thinking about the stupidity of it!

Santorum: Articulate and correct in defending life; sensible and pro-taxpayer
in supporting the Bush tax cuts that helped make 6 million jobs in the last 4 years.
But most importantly, Santorum's actions and his July speech on describing the global terrorist threat
as rooted in Islamicist fascist extremism show that he fully understands the war we are
in and is supporting the right policies to win it.

Casey: Liberal. Incoherent. Idiot. Mediocrity. Will make Hillary Uber-Leader....

See my letter ...

"I would ask Pennsylvania voters: Please vote to keep Santorum,
not just for the sake of your state, but for the sake of our country.
This country needs Rick Santorum."

RIGHT?

"EVEN THOUGH TOOMEY STRONGLY SUPPORTS AND ENDORSES SANTORUM NOW?!?"

I was very surprised to receive a recorded phone message from Mr. Toomy about 3 weeks ago stating that he fully supports Sen. Santorum!

There are many here that are still very bitter at Santorum's support of Specter.

Lets hope that they come to their senses before it's too late! As you know Casey is a ZERO running on his father's name recognition.

Here's a great radio ad:

Pat Toomey talking about Rick Santorum

Conservatives who think they need to "punish" Rick Santorum because he backed Arlen Specter need to think about this: if they succeed in defeating Rick, there will never be another conservative Senator from a Blue state. And I would daresay even other conservatives from Red states will start to trim their sails in terms of defending life, defending marriage, defending the family, and defending America against Islamic fascism. The message they will get is, don't stick your neck out or you will be caricatured and savaged by the media, and even conservatives will never think you are conservative enough. We will end up with a Senate full of Lindsey Grahams. Is that what you really want?

Hey, don't kill the messenger! I'm in Rick's corner 100%.

If the election is as close as I think it may be the deciding factor may be the known voter fraud that will occur in Phila. & Allegheny counties. Rendell's machine is very strong in these urban areas.

Deep down inside I believe that when the Toomey supporters step into the voting machine they'll vote for Rick because the alternative is unimaginable.

It could be that they are withholding their support to "Punish" Rick and make him sweat before the election. I believe the conservative base will eventually support Rick and strongly believe in his ideology.

Lets hope that I'm correct in my belief.

How an empty suit can be endorsed by the Phily Inquirer and be ahead of a serious candidate during a war, is beyond me. It is a very sad commentary on our times.

I hope Pennsylvanians will think about this when they vote.

I also hope Pennsylvanians will think about how history will view their very important vote.

President Bush also just said at his press conference how history will look back and say:

What happened to those people in 2006? How could they let...(have to get full quote later)
