There’s no penalty for knocking off a turncoat traitor like Specter. They use those guys up and throw them away.
Knocking off a sitting Democrat, son of a Democrat, would seem to be a different kettle of fish. I shouldn’t think the state party would be too happy about this.
The question is which of the two would it be easier for us to unseat, Sestak or Casey.
“...a different kettle of fish...”
Oh yes, assuming Casey remains popular in PA, Sestak would really be wasting his time.
I’m glad he defeated Spector, Spector was a rat-fink in many ways.
Casey is of course not the man his father was, but I don’t see how Sestak gets any traction against him. Esp. considering the results of this election, it doesn’t seem Pennsy will be clamoring for more liberal reps, although that might be a wrong assessment for the dem primaries.
