I heard what is at your link on that CBS affiliate news station this morning. One of my sisters lives in that Congressional District (PA 13) and I am on the border of it (in PA 2 with Chaka Fattah). Am hoping for a miracle and even if some other Democrat gets it, I'm hoping that she consider taking on Toomey in 2016. Since that would be a Presidential election year, the turnout should definitely be a bit higher then than other election years.

I remember back in I think '92 when Lynn Yeakel ran for Senator to try to unseat Specter. She almost did it but he had a big machine of crossover votes that pushed him to the win. Now is the time to get a woman Senator here in PA!
