Whoa, I just saw a poli ad against Spector...
Arlen Spector, my Repub senator by the Club for Growth(?), comparing him to Kerry and being too liberal and voting with Kerry on issues. I'd read something about this RW group targeting moderate Republicans. But hey, Santorum's just fine with them!

1. Yeah, I've seen that one too
Toomey is really scary, but part of me wonders if maybe we shouldn't hope he wins the primary. Joe Hoeffel, the Dem candidate for Senate would stand a pretty good chance of beating Toomey.

What do you think?

3. Toomy is scary..
and I would hope if nominated would scare enough moderate people to vote for Hoeffel. How Santorum sticks around is beyond my comprehension, though he's come more out of the RW closet since Bush was elected. A pair of PA senators like Santorum and Toomy would make me wonder how Rendell got elected. Spector is the old time conservative, doesn't bother me too much, I've even met him a time or two. I suppose that's why they want him out.

4. Right after the dog on dog interview of Santorum
He came to my area and he was met by 10 protesters with signs. SUPPORTING him.

I hate living in this area. :puke:

2. If you watch FAUX news for any length of time
You will see a Spector ad, then Toomey, then Spector. Sometimes up to 4 in a row.

Toomey is trying to get the Conservatives fired up, I don't think it will work. If the Warren Commission crap couldn't get Spector out, these ads aren't going to work.

I don't know how I would feel if Toomey won the primary, it would give the democrat an even playing field. But Toomey scares the shit out of me, worse than Dog-on-dog boy.

5. The thought of a Santorum/ Toomey tag team
is enough to make me ill.

My dad told me in 2000 that he just LOVED Santorum. I love my dad, but never miss an opportunity to let him know how Santorum's latest vote has NOT been in his best interest.

Santorum is an embarrassment. Did you know that Teresa Heinz once remarked that Santorum was like "Forest Gump with an attitude"?

6. ROTFLMAO
I can't wait till that twerp is up for reelection. You know I live in such a republican area, and I am not worried about PA going red in November. There have been so many job losses around here, people are mad.
