1. yes should be interesting

[saltpoint]

2. Yep. It could be a barn-burner.

I'm rooting for Joe.

3. Rooting for Specter's retirement

Then we can puke our guts out when he and his Congressional cronies bloviate about his patriotic conscientious service to America and Americans. :patriot:

[saltpoint]

4. He's a tough old buzzard. But I think Joe has some serious momentum

and can defeat him.

And then go on to whup Pat Toomey in the general.

5. I really want to like Sestak....

but there is something about how he talks that really puts me off....
I see him as being quite robotic, rehearsed and just a little bit creepy.

If he wins the primaries, I don't know this Toomey guy, but I hope that he is not
good at communicating in an earnest way, cause Joe leaves one kinda of wantin'....

7. The trouble is Toomey has run in a state wide election before and he is a three term Congressman.

He is also the former president of Club for Growth. He has been amassing a fortune and is running unopposed in the Republican primaries.

9. i got the same feeling watching him on some show

he is one of those who seems good when you read about him, his background etc.

but when you actually see them and hear them you get a different view.

13. I saw him on Ed I think today.....

and it was like with each question, he would go on and on and on.....
with what seemed to be his stump speech or something....
and Ed had to like kind of interrupt him....and Ed was being nice,
so it came off awkward.

I hope if he wins someone tells him....maybe he's just trying real hard,
and that is what we are seeing....but unfortunately, until he corrects this demeanor,
I fear it will be a turn off to many. :(

6. Paid for by ...

The Arlen Specter Campaign Committee?

Sestak was ahead about 4 or 5 points just 2 or 3 days ago. I doubt that anybody has turned against him in the last day or two? It seems like the momentum is with Sestak? I certainly hope so. I do not believe Arlen Specter can be trusted. Wasn't he somehow connected to the "magic bullet" theory of the Kennedy assassination?? Wasn't he connected to the Republican Party for about 40 years? Didn't he do a great job attacking Anita Hill and putting Clarence Thomas on the Supreme Court?

10. Specter has stepped up the game. n/t

[saltpoint]

12. You were dissing this polling organization not one day ago on this site.

Good to see you don't object to it this evening.

[wisteria]

8. This is going to come down to who can get out the votes.

But, it is also good to see that Specter has regained a little ground.

11. i hope so
