Nonsense, this is a Republican wave year shaping up, just like 2010. This PA election is a perfect example. Casey was running away with this, but now he’s not and he’s spending a ton on ads statewide.
I’d like it to be true, but when’s the last time Republicans swept in a presidential year? We have a decent history of doing it in off-years, when all the ignorant swing voters don’t show up and vote on their vague feelings of who they “like” better. But Toomey only won by 2 points. It’s hard to see how there isn’t enough increased turnout from Obamabots this year to make up for that on the D side. I can see more split-ticket Romney/Casey voters than I can see Obama/Smith voters.
