As a former Santorum voter and contributor, I hope he loses.

Spector is a mean leftie. He intends payback for being given such a hard time about the Chairmanship. Furthermore, Specter cut a backroom deal with the editorial board of the Philadelphia Inquirer that in exchange for their endorsement of his reelection, he would do everything possible to keep pro-life judicial nominees from being approved, and I believe he has every intention of keeping his end of this Faustian bargain. He's out for himself and doesn't care a whit about President Bush or the at-large Republican party.

Pre-Toomey, I have suggested that Santorum or McConnell be Majority Leader instead of Frist who is as spineless as Trent Lott - now Post-Toomey, I would not support Santorum for anything (except maybe re-election against a Rendell, etc.) He went for political convenience instead of the principles he heretofore promoted.

"Casey is a pro life Democrat and he will carry the state..........big time"
Didn't Casey support John Kerry?
Santorum supported Specter.
What's the difference?

I doubt very much whether the Repub aids are going to remain silent on this one.

Regarding #40, please watch your language.

How anyone could think that this lying bag of haggis is anything but a back-stabbing-RINO-liberal is beyond me. Last time I was in Scotland, I had haggis. With a little catsup it ain't all that bad. So please, no more be-rating haggis by comparing it to Arlen Specter!!

Wasn't it his father (now deceased) who was banned from speaking at the Dem convention?

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize he had passed. Is the Son similar to the Father?

He seems to be, he is not shy about his pro-life views. He is however a bit of a populist on ecnomic issues. And Casey Jr. because he is pro-life may be opposed the party switching ex treasure Barbara Hafer seems to be Rendel's pick, Casey, Jr and Rendel reportedly do not get along real well so it is a question as to if they could run as a team in 2006.

Also President Bush and so called Republican leadership chose the Oklahoma City mayor over the more conservative senate winner TOM COBURN.

I agree that Specter is a bad liberal and that Santorum made a mistake backing him but we can not turn on the good guys the minute they make a mistake. There is no one that I know of who is a better senator that Santorum or more pro-life and he needs support. Let the mistake be past. If I never voted for anyone who had not made a mistake I would not vote.
To: marty60
Is the Son similar to the Father? Don't know much about either, except for the pro-life Democrat part. I did see an interview with the father years ago; he seemed like a reasonable sort, and I suspect (he was a devout and traditional Catholic) he would reject at least some of the loonier left positions required by Dems today.
(Is there a reason for your capitalization of "Father" and "Son" -- it makes me feel like I'm at the Nicene Council LOL!)

Bush and the republican party are anything but conservative.
Simply put...they are party republicans. Appears the republican isn't a place for conservatives these days.

Santorum brought this on himself by supporting a liberal over a conseravtive.
I have little sympathy for him.

This deal was sealed when Bush and Santorum backed the wrong horse.Yeah, and if we all start blackmailing our own, before we even know it, the Democrats are back in power.
