Breaking on Fox Rick Santorum Reading Unclassified Version over 500 Chemical WMDs Found

BECAUSE IF YOUR GOING TO GET RID OF A TRUE PRO-LIFER,YOU HAVE TO FIND A KINDOF PRO-LIFE DEMOCRAT TO RUN AGAINST HIM[Sorry,to shout]

[Williams]

I know we don't want to hear this, but it's just the Casey name, and a sense that Casey is more conservative than most democrats. It is a very sentimental choice, the same concept that will make Tom Kean, Jr. competitive in liberal NJ. Casey's father died after a transplant struggle, and was a local favorite. People are going to vote for the son. Not fair, just political reality.

More Polls.

Still YAWNING.

[MilesVeritatis]

Still way too soon to call this election, IMO.

"So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, good night" Santorum for sucking up to your buddy Snarl'n and dragging Bush in to boot. Disgusting.

[conservative blonde]

Because they both are on the same page.

[HitmanLV]

Santorum was looking to make it competitive a few weeks ago, and looks to have collapsed again. I think he just overstayed his welcome. Pennsylvanians are just rejecting him, for whatever reason.

I wish him the best, though. Would be nice to see this tighten up again.

Casey is the classic "empty suit". Rick has been and is a very good Senator. The media, especially from Philly and Pittsburgh are just brutal against Rick and I concede he is going to have a tough time of it. That said, I will continue to work hard for and donate to the Santorum effort. He deserves the support of all Pensy pipples!

The people who did this poll seem to have a strong Dem bias. Other polls show Santorum down to single digits I think that is more believable.

Santorum touched a nerve with these guys, for one...

[mewzilla]

The only poll that counts is the one at the ballot box on Election Day. And Silent's Bob's not that popular.

[mlstier]

Just checked Bob Casey's website, and as usual nowdays, no indication of party affiliation.

Only the hint of it, since there are anti-Santorm/GOP news postings.

[SmoothTalker]

It will be a tough fight. I think that will easily be the tougherst reelection fight one of our candidates faces and that Santorum is very likely to go down. Shame because he is a very good senator. A little too conservative for a state that tends to vote Dem in presidential races, and RINO for the other senate seat.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Here in PA some conservatives are angry with Santorum for campaigning for Specter. They're now saying they don't care if Santorum loses.

[billhilly]

Which one is in favor of withdrawal of troops in Iraq, homosexual marriage, voting rights for illegal immigrants, abortion on demand, open borders, and forgetful of 9/11?

[Constitution1st]

Polls by Quinnipiac? They are worthless, they are so false. Completely manipulated by the left to give the desired result.

[WestSylvanian]

Santorum is hammering Casey in radio ads in the Pittsburgh area about the immigration issue. Santorum voted against the Senate bill and is criticizing every aspect of it. Casey apparently favors amnesty. The mayor of Hazleton's action against illegals resonates with Pennsylvanians. I have a feeling Casey's stand will hurt him badly. Santorum isn't dead yet.

[therut]

I admire Rick Santoram very much. He was very good because he was sincere on the banning of partial birth abortion. He may lose but he may win in the end one of the desires of his heart. I wish he was my Senator. Maybe he will move to a more RED STATE (Think Arkansas)and run again. Come on down..PA is going Blue slowly.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Pennsylvania conservatives considering not voting for Santorum are fools.

Santorum is perhaps the most conservative Republican in the Senate.
