What changed in this race? Is Toomey running ineffective ads? In PA the race can’t be this close or the Phily machine will create a win.
My husband and I don’t get it. Sestak has been mostly a no-show, running basically poor ads in which he doesn’t appear. I don’t even think he has campaigned. I haven’t heard anything about him appearing anywhere. Toomey has been running good ads all along in which he does appear. However, I did see a Sestak ad two nights ago which has Toomey saying that he doesn’t agree with abortion rights and he thinks abortion doctors ought to be prosecuted. That will lose him some votes.
Obama and Biden have been in Philly lately. I personally believe that they are using their presence to rev up their “army” to go “find” votes. I have wondered if sympathetic media and pollsters are somehow polling differently to get more Sestak-friendly results that will give cover to the fraud that is definitely going to take place. I really don’t know how these things work.
I think a lot of folks have been relaxing, forgetting about unions getting out the vote. Here in AZ, early voting is tied in AZ-8, with a great conservative running against a corrupt Dem who now lives in either DC or Texas.
But the teachers unions and public employee unions are desperate. They don’t want to face the sort of ‘cut-backs’ that the private sector has faced for the last 2 years, and they WILL spend every dime and get out every vote, dead or alive.
We won’t cruise to victory. Anyone telling you otherwise is a fool. This is going to be a hard fight.
1.2 million more registered Dems than GOP. Everything tightened in 1994 also.
