Born in New Eagle and raised in Charleroi in Pennsylvania's Monongahela Valley, Guy comes from a long line of Democrats. "My grandfather worked at Corning Glass, my father worked in the mines, the steel mill and finally at Corning," he recalled. "The family always had union ties, and that usually meant a tie to the Democratic Party."

In the past 6 weeks I've had three golf buddies that voted for obama in 08 swear that they won't vote for that commie in the next election.
If the first gay white hut pResident doesn't win PA, he may be down to 3 or 4 states.
The next election could be an epic ass whoop'en with libs and msm {but I repeat myself} committing mass suicides.
Thanks for all of the Freep love; made Mom’s Day even a little brighter.
In every election involving an incumbent, a) some of the people who voted for him last time will not vote for him this time; equally, b) some of the people who voted for his opponent last time will vote for the incumbent this time.
This November, a) will certainly will happen but b) probably will not.
