Not again...Analysis that is quite a stretch, to say the least.

Santorum would not have won his previous races without Specter’s strong backing, especially the 49-47 victory over Worford in 1994. It would have required a lack of integrity on the part of Santorum to have not returned the favor when Specter found his own self in a pinch. Specter had also been a staunch and outspoken opponent of such health care schemes in the past.

And while it is possible, there is no guarantee that Toomey would have been able to defeat Hoeffel in the general election, as Kerry carried the state at the top of the ticket. Odds are probably against. Hoeffel would have certainly been right there voting for Obamacare had he been in the Senate rather than Toomey or Specter.

Let’s stick with reality when it comes to analysis...that isn’t asking too much.

Integrity vs morality, maybe integrity vs honesty, how about integrity vs actual beliefs - is there a place where I can look that up for politicians?

Since when does returning a favor rank even close to anything else that most profess to be actual - you know decent traits for politicians?
