1. I don't think it is that close...
I think Sestak is ahead by 3 or 4 points.

6. I agree. The more I know about him and his associations, the less I like him.
He will not serve the people of PA. He will serve the interests of big business.

4. A Dem. on MSNBC, Ed Rendell, I think, said if a Dem. is a few points down in the polls
before an election, they WILL find those voters to put him over the top. Talking GOTV.

8. He's right ...
Last three state wide races, the RCP average of all polls hit the percentage for the Rs almost spot on, but for each of the Dems - Casey, Rendell and BO, the average was a good 2 or 3 points short ... Also, the each won by 10+ points ... It just was never realistic that the state was going to go three straight statewide races with the D winning by 10 plus points to a darn good candidate like Sestak going against a decent, but not great R in Toomey (candidate wise) and be down 10 points or whatever it has been ...

I think if Toomey is at 46 or so going in and Sestak no more than two down, Sestak can get it ...

Onorato ... I don't think he can make it ...

11. I know, but after next week's elections,
Edited on Tue Oct-26-10 09:33 PM by jenmito
we'll have far fewer Dem. governors and that will hurt us in '12, I fear. Not to mention redistricting.

This is very doable.
