My apologies if a thread already exists. I did a search on "Toomey" and found nothing.

I arrived at my polling area (suburban Philadelphia) at 6:45 am to hand out palm cards. The weather is terrific this morning, but turnout (I thought) was light (I had to leave at 9:15, but will be back).

Actually, I have a good feeling about Pat.

Bryn Mawr is a post office -- not a municipality -- and it serves parts of three different towns. One of them, Radnor, is one of the most conservative in the state. Also, rememember that Dems can't vote in the GOP primary.

The women's college there, of course, is disgustingly leftist.

[Petronski]

Just a matter of how many ballots are left to fake, huh?

[free2freep]

How many recounts allowed under Scottish election law?

[Checkers]

If Specter wins this, expect him to get all Scottish on our asses.

[antaresequity]

cry to all Democrats to switch party registration to Republican and vote for Specter.

That doesnt make any sense?...According to Bush and Santorum...Toomey is 'unelectable'. If I was a dem stratagist...then I would push my flock to vote for Toomey....

Unless the Dems are not stupid, Bush and Santorum are...and Toomey is real threat...

Yo GW and Rick...you backed the wrong horse you partisans...

Pittsburgh precints?

[ConservativeMan55]

[AmericanInTokyo]

Well, in that case, crap. Good night. The Cold Duck will have to wait until Friday night after we have leveled Fallujah and all the insurgents holed up there.

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]
