Murtha brings shame to the people of Johnstown PA who voted for pork over our American hero’s. Once Murtha is retired, that city needs to rely only upon their steel mills, the last industry they built.

They closed years ago.

That is the real challenge facing a Republican challenging Murtha. A campaign of “I’m not a treasonous POS” won’t work. A challenger who doesn’t promise to out-Murtha Murtha in bringing home the pork doesn’t stand a chance. As we saw in ‘06, the people in PA-12 don’t care about anything that happens outside their hometowns.
