Toomey will have to run an outstanding campaign. Specter is savvy and has plenty of lib helpers wanting to stick it to Toomey.

But, what a morning after a Toomey win in the Gen. Elct.

Specter was for card check before he was against it. He’s running to the right as he always does a year before the election. That’s a bad thing for Obama, because Specter might not be a sure vote on some key issues.

Toomey should beat him, unless a LOT of Democrats cross over and vote Specter (assuming their primary has a shoo in candidate), but PA does not have an open primary system, so they would have to go to the trouble to change their registration a month before the primary, then change it back to vote in the general.

I doubt there are enough Democrats who would take the trouble to do that.
