3. From all I have read; It is hold your nose and

vote for Sestak. He has veered to the left leading up to the election as they all do. He votes with the dems most of the time, which to me is meaningless. It is the bills that matter. Congress is a well oiled machine to appear something it is not. Many votes are apple pie and meaningless to keep their voting records acceptable. We know specter is a sometimes "moderate" republican. We all need to figure out exactly who Sestak is before the election. This utterance is a big mark against him in my book. The Pugs have made filibuster a "heads I win tails u lose proposition" and it is a death knell for democrats. We need to kill it once and for all and let the chips fall where they may. For me that is what democracy is.

4. Thanks for presenting both points of view. For me, Specter has a better grasp on what is going on

and what needs to be done. And, whether progressives like it or not,compromise is going to be necessary-once we weed out or expose the bad seeds-like DeMint-in order to get things accomplished.
