Why did Rick lose in 2006? That’s EASY, George W. Bush AND Arlen Spector.
Yep, you got that right.
A better question for Donald is why did Willard lose his run for the senate in '94, which was a great year for Republicans?
Well now I thought the "blame Bush" talking point was owned by the Democrates and Liberals? So No deal....Santorum lost because of the decisions HE made...the ways in which HE framed his talking points...and HIS temperment....all of which and more caused HIS loss and dramatically so. That's the bottom line here....
Keep in mind, also, that Carville and Begala were running Casey’s campaign. They gave him the same advice as Obama got: just stand there and look presidential. Fool the people. Santorum used to beat the heck out of Casey in the debates, but Casey just kept quiet.
Santorum was the hardest working senator PA has ever had. He visited all 67 counties every year, was always available. One of the radio stations here in Pgh. plays “Where’s Casey?” He’s just plain lazy.
Also, remember we have one of the highest senior populuations in PA, and they vote. They thought Jr. was a clone of Sr.

The loss was personal. He was toxic. Any fair reading of his record shows why he still is.
