Hart’s district is just north of where I live, but word on the street is that she was a bit of a RINO, and that Jason Altmire won by running to the right of her.
She's probably not the most conservative rep out there, but she's no RINO and Altmire didn't run to the right of ANYBODY. Altmire's a socialist twerp who should be nothing but a one-termer, but there still may be enough elderly FDR-worshiping union morons around here to keep him around.
If Hart is the best we can do, so be it, but I'd prefer a far more aggressive conservative candidate.
“Jason Altmire won by running to the right of her.”
MOST of the new Democrats won by running to the right of thier opponents, we lost 3 seats in Indiana to that.
But, THE FACTS show they have done ANYTHING but what they promised to, and instead have let the Socialist traitors run rampant.
Not sure what street you're listening to these days?
Melissa was labeled a "bushbot" by her opponent and the press. It was a nasty and concerted campaign against her with national money coming in to help Altmire.
I don't know if she can win because the Beaver Valley area of the district is overwhelmingly Democrat.
She's a good person and was a good rep. when I lived in the district.
Lynn Swann might stand a chance with the "Steeler Morons" out in Beaver County but Melissa would be a better Representative.
