Mr. Generally wants to be a key part of that grassroots‐generated, can‐do type of Congress, and what better way to do that than by unseating a "Republican" that does not stand for fiscal responsibility and our conservative values?
Devon Generally is proud to announce his candidacy for the U.S. Senate representing the people of the great state of Pennsylvania. His election would unseat Mr. Specter, but more importantly it would show a return to core conservative principles and the kind of truly representative Republic that our founding fathers created.
A decorated veteran of the United States Navy, Mr. Generally served aboard the U.S. nuclear submarine Key West, a first‐responder in Operation Enduring Freedom following the September 11 tragedy. During his service he received the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Award.

Im concerned with whats happening to the Republican Party. While any party will have some minor differences, some of our elected officials have strayed far from the wishes of conservatives. The questions then become what do conservatives need to do about the GOP? How do conservatives gain control of the GOP? The answer is simple: We take it.
The success of this party is not defined by winning it's defined by principle. If we water down conservatism, what's going to be the difference at the ballot box? We must draw a distinct difference between them and us. As conservatives we don't look for leadership in Wash Dc cause there is none. We must provide leadership. This is our country and we have to take it back. The vetting begins in our party.
I would vote for Stalin’s dead rotting corpse over Arlen Specter.
Is he generally going to challenge Spector? Or is it a specific challenge?
Generally speaking, the GOP needs to put up a stronger candidate than this to unseat the Scottish Lord.
I just thought this was another poorly written headline! Generally, that is.
Oh, this is great! Devon Generally believe in... Devon Generally votes for... We can have all sorts of fun!
It does not add up.
That and he is from Illinois
How do conservatives gain control of the GOP? The answer is simple: We take it.
He sounds scary, like he might have some principles or something. ;)
Yeah, what you said.
Don't assume that a person's location dictates that they hold to the dominant politics of the area. I live in liberal Orange CO., NC, and I'm probably the most conservative person on this thread.
Illinois? Not good.
Navy guy - vey good. Sub guy - very good.
If he is a conservative then A1.
My concern is that several good conservatives challenge Spector, split the vote, and Specter wins the GOP nomination again.
Devon generally is quite cold this time of year...
I’ve got Ghenghis Khan’s head on my trophy wall.
Hmmmm, I have my doubts. Just like Zero, you never know who you’re voting for until after they win.
What did you read or hear that leads you to conclude that Mr. Generally is not a strong-enough candidate??
Support Devon Generally for Senate.
FLUSH TWICE!!!!!
Get rid of Spector!!!!
And write the self-righteous S.O.B. and tell him you are doing it!!!!
I certainly will.
Generally speaking, he's got less experience than the Messiah had when he ran for State Senate. We need someone with a longer resume to grab the seat from this elderly, fully horned, wealthily endowed RINO, IMO.
His background and views look good and I will support ANYBODY who runs against that piece of septic tank overflow Arlen Spector. I’d vote for a Demcorat to flush him out of office - and Devon looks like he FAR from a Democrat.
He’s got my support if theres no one else, but Toomey would be stronger, more credible. But such is life.
