The last three most recent polls in PA have Clinton ahead in all above the MOE:

Monmouth Clinton +10

Quinnipiac Clinton +5

F&M Clinton +12

The PA Senate polls are all over the place. Monmouth has Toomey tied with McGinty and Franklin and Marshall has McGinty leading by 6. Another reason why you can’t trust any of them when they show Hillary up over Trump.

I observe that NRA/PVF has given Toomey a “C” grade; McGinty an “F”.

Sestak gave my son an appointment to West Point.

I was told that he gave out more appointments to the academies than any other congressmen == really working the system.

Other than that he was loony. So excited to see him beaten by Toomey, and now I am so disappointed in Toomey.

Toomey skipped the convention and is turning into Arlen. Ironic.

Monmouth was caught juicing the presidential poll in Ohio in late August. It appears they are doing it again, showing Hillary up there.

I have seen few Hillary signs.... that end with the words for prison and only one Hillary for president sign, oddly it was out on one of the more rural roads not in the city of york, and Lots and lots of Trump signs.

I have been spelling Quinnipiac wrong because I cut and pasted it from the Inquirer. I should know better.

Sorry!

Ok concern troll, hated to interrupt your thumb sucking with facts, you are right Trump is going to lose, it’s all over... :-/. Why are all concern trolls cucks, beta males or women? Good thing they weren’t at Guadalcanal or we would be speaking Japanese now.

EXACTLY! There is NO WAY Trump is down 10 points. I doubt its even 4-5. Any poll that has the functional retard Johnson polling at 9-10 points are utter nonsense. I think Trump should hit Philly and the Philly suburbs to reduce the margin he will lose this area. PA is DEEP RED except Philly and Pittsburgh.

If Toomey is up by that much, there is no way that Trump is trailing by up to 10% in some recent polls.

It's inconceivible to me that people would vote for Toomey on the down ballot while ignoring Trump on top.

I was just going to post that ... and I live in PA :-).

Rat Governor Wolfe has not been popular and the Rat AG who was just indicted perjury and obstruction (http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/16/politics/pennsylvania-attorney-general-kane/index.html) doesn’t help the party brand.

Hopefully Trump can capitalize on that the way McAuliffe capitalized on the McDonnell stuff in VA.

One would think a Toomey voter pulls the lever for Trump? One would expect to see a high correlation, unless the polls are rigged. Hmm......

Makes you wonder why the Dems think everybody in Philly wants to kill their baby.

Yeah, any voter who would split their ticket between Toomey and Hillary would be needing serious professional help.

“Toomey skipped the convention and is turning into Arlen. Ironic.”

I wouldn’t go that far, but I certainly know what you mean :-).

I don’t think Toomey would ever go party hopping like Spector did ... that takes a special breed of scum. However, I hate seeing someone that campaigned as a hardcore Tea Partier in 2010 drift leftward on our key issues after using people like ourselves to get elected.

You may certainly be right, but he has a long, long, long way to fall before he hits Spector-level.

The information I provided had to do with Clinton versus Trump, which is why I don’t understand how Toomey can be ahead so much and Trump trailing.

I’m down on PA. If Trump over performs on election day and carries it, I don’t think it’ll be the deciding state (but would obviously sign for a FL-NC-PA narrow win).

Also, I wouldn’t read too much into Hillary campaigning there. She has to think all she needs is a stop in PA to maybe/probably win or a stop in NC or FL to definitely win. She has to assume the rest of the blue firewall (less IA) holds because if it doesn’t she loses either way. So, don’t expect to see her in WI, MI or MN but only those 3 states.

Awesome for your son. Many thanks for his service.

Outside of helping with appointments Joe Sestak is an embarrassment who was fired from the Navy and a left wing lunatic.

“It took the new Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Mike Mullen, less than 24 hours to dump one of the most disliked officers among the Navy’s top brass. Vice-Admiral Joe Sestak, an arrogant and obnoxious “bully-boy,” who delighted in being rude and unreasonable and getting away with it, found he was expendable the minute his mentor went out the door.”

Toomey can be frustrating. McGinty would be a CATASTROPHE/
