Romney would be better for the economy, we'd be way ahead. Mention the Bush years at every opportunity, AND compare them to Romney's similar plans.

Glad to hear about Corbett; I'm in PA and never hear/see it reported.

Obama could very well repeat his 2008 performance in the states voting totals.

But my warnings fell on deaf ears. Now, after it's too late, a lot of the people are telling me how right I was. Small comfort.

Many PA voters saw through Tom Corbett's B.S. It was sickening to hear people say, "He seems like such a nice guy!". Hmm. I'll bet a whole lot of them aren't saying that now!

Toomey is a tool and always will be. It was so encouraging to see that the jackass voted against equal pay for women yesterday. What has Toomey done to earn his paycheck---a big ole' nothing.

Considering Democrats barely won the state in '00 & '04 - I'll take a six-point margin. That means Obama is still outperforming both Kerry and Gore, and since both lost (err, you know what I mean) in the narrowest of fashions, it continues to show why Obama is the favorite.

Obama won the state by 10 last go around. Kerry won it by about 3 in '04 & Gore by 4 in '00.
