I watched a program , something on discussing pa politics out of harrisburg tv station every sunday morning. I found out there are three judgeships up for nomination, from counties, in the southeast all judges are for specter and each is very well known... I also found out Specter is 15 for 15 in getting judges approved. A lot of toomey money has come from out of state. some organization for growth. i expect is a tax cutting group has donated 2 million to toomey and is running quite a few of the ads on tv.

domenici calling Specter a "pig" for getting medical research money into Pa. should be a plus for him in state elections not a negative. We are the highest or one the highest states for drug firms and employees. specter has long been known to support various research for medial advance.

Specter is also a horse"s ass.
Toomey appears not be a team player and maybe a horse's ass.

On the program one person , i think mfg. assocation was for specter and had him by 10 points. of course i think he is way over on his estimate. the pittsburgh paper newsman wouldn't say but did say the winner will beat by 6 points.He also thought Toomey could win in the against the democrat, i believe you posted an article by the paper and it repeated the same positions. the other speaker was for toomey and expected toomey to win but no spread given.

I believe the monitor also said the republican organization in the state supported Specter. If so that machine can also get out the vote. I wonder who will win? I think too close to call.
