"I don't regret sending her some money. She's a fine lady."

DITTO!

This was the first time I ever contributed to a candidate from another state. As a veteran I felt compelled to do so and I am so happy to be able to do something. In another year she would of won this, but the anti-war/anti-Bush momentum was just too strong across the country and even very classy people like Diana had a tough time fighting the storm surge of drive-by media anti-republican news stories of the last couple of months. If she runs again - count on this Washington State Veteran to be there for her again.

Thank you for sending money. Fighting the good fight is always commendable

I was there in Pa for 5 months this year, returning to Florida Nov. 1st.

To you and all others of like mind, I would say that most districts such as these are nothing more than windmills for us to tilt at, wasting money by throwing it down the cobalt blue rathole that most of Pa, or it's electorate, has become.

I was born and lived there for 29 years, and now the outright rudeness and contempt for traditional values and Southern Republicans was appalling, especially so in the media and campaign ads.

I Like Ivey, but she didn't have a snowball's chance in hell. Look at what happened to Santorum.

Now there are a ton of Freepers, and others, who believe that Rick was "punished" by his base for backing Spector, but I didn't see any of that.

What I saw was that Pa is sliding rapidly to the Left, and is declining in economic status as good people head South.

Hell, they tax darn near everything on the face of the Earth, including income taxes on the State and local (@##$$^&&*!!) level.

In short, color Pa. cobalt blue and rank it with NJ and NY.
