Irey approached to run against Specter

How about a CPAC primary to determine the opponent of Specter in the GOP primary?

Irey's not gonna do it.

What I don't get is Toomey. Too many people are assuming he's in. He hasn't announced anything, just said he's "leaning", or "probably will", or "is all but certain". Why's he being so coy? Makes him look silly.

What needs to NOT be done is what has been done in the last two gubernatorial races in the Commonwealth, where GOP leadership picks candidates, thus ensuring that their choice has no experience campaigning against a tough opponent. Make no mistake about it: Specter will be difficult to defeat. His challenger will need formidable skills, and it needs to be made clear to the PA GOP that we will not stand for business as usual.
