A complete Republican toad. Casey should be leading by more. And come October, he may well be

Sure won't be taking anything for granted. D rump and toomey should have been squashed like cockroaches, here.

Good news, but no time for complacency.

...unlike his colleagues on the other side of the aisle.

No GOP incumbent deserves to be re-elected. Not one!

but the hope is that we get folks out to ensure both get re-elected. The fact that Wolf defied a historic PA precedent by halting an incumbent governor's attempt at a 2nd term (Corbett-R), made it clear back then that Democrats weren't playing and we sure as hell ain't playing now!

an old time political gentleman. Hope he learns to make more noise, Barletta is Trump's hand-maiden.
