Defeating Spector is more important than getting Toomey elected. In other words, I would vote for Toomey even if I knew he cannot be elected. We cannot have Spector as Chairman of the Judiciary Committee.

Dittos on that!!!

With 5 OPEN Senate seats in the south, and all races lining up quite well, and with Illinois looking good for Bush, we may well have a net 4-5 pickup. that is 55-56 GOP Senators.

Conservatives are better off with 55 Republican Senators *without* Spectre than with 56 Republican Senators with him.
we need a more conservative chairman to fight for the judicial nominees.

Still, I dont expect Toomey to lose. I expect Toomey to beat Spectre then to go on and win on Bush's coattails in November. Bush and Toomey both will win PA.

And it will be a very good thing for conservatives.
