If you vote for either Hoeffel or Specter, it tells the parties that you don't mind if a candidate is a pro-abortion liberal. Isn't it better to vote 3rd party, write-in a ballot or not vote at all for the U.S. senate race?

No, not for me at least. Abortion is not my top issue. (Although I AM anti-abortion. BTW I use that terminology because I refuse to soft pedel or "PC" my stance. I am anti-abortion, period.)

My top issue is to stop our country's slide into the cesspool of socialism. If we keep sending RINO's back to congress the slide contines. W slowed it, and for that I am thankful. He has been a wonderful leader, accent on LEADER!

However I shudder at the thought of his second term. That is usually where a president spends more and expands social programs.

Now you might say, "But pris...how does electing a liberal

(Again a term I do not like to use. Liberal at one time was a political opinion along the lines of Jefferson. Today liberal = socialist, and socialist is the transition to communisim.)

like Hoeffel help? Wouldn't it be better to put Arlen back? At least he's a pubbie."

And I would say no. Hoeffel will be a junior member of congress. I doubt he coud do much damage. Arlen however...NOT EVEN 12 HOURS AFTER THE ELECTION...held a press conference in Center City Philly and blasted Bush! Said he intended to FIGHT AGAINST W on many conservative hot buttons.

With his seniority he could do much more damage than Hoeffel, IMO.

Of course PA will once again have to bite the bulllet and put up with him, but heck like we haven't done THAT before.

This is the belly of the beast, as far as socialiasm and unions go. Cripes...look at how the unions love Arlen!

It's way past time for him to go. In the >relative, short term it will be tough for PA, and if the pubbies lose in the senate it will be harder on W. So be it sez I. In the long run it will be better for the country.

I refuse to bow one more time to the RINO overlords who are starting to whine already. They think nothing of throwing a bone - or more - to the left, but what do they give to conservatives?

Nope! NO MORE!
