Toomey is not a fluke, and it absolutely was not Trump’s coattails that won for him. He outperformed Trump among suburban Republicans, while Trump won a lot of votes among Democrats in rural Pennsylvania who didn’t vote for Toomey.

You're obviously not familiar with the political landscape in PA if you think that Toomey "outperforming" Trump among suburban Republicans is some kind of accomplishment. The PA State Republican Party is Establishment/UniParty Central and those suburban Republicans are part of the swamp.

You obviously missed my point. I was responding to a poster who suggested that Toomey only won because of Trump's "coattails" in Pennsylvania.

You're not winning on another candidate's "coattails" if you attract different voters than he did.
