Good deal, let the games begin!

Beer? Not advisable, Representative Sestak. Alcohol and mental illness are a poor combination.

I will consider a trip form the Phila to the Lehigh Valley, David Diano, will you attend wearing your Septuagenarian for Senate shirt?

Toomey and Specter “interchangeable”??

That’s like saying “your ass” and “a hole in the ground” are interchangeable.

Clearly Sestak doesn’t seem to know the difference between either.

Oddly, Sestak is trying to make himself and Toomey interchangeable.

95 South-
I didn’t know we had a Septuagenarian in the race. Specter is an Octogenarian.

Did you mean Delaware Valley to Lehigh Valley?
Does anyone know where the debate is? Is it Lehigh?

Their first debate was in Allentown, where Toomey lives. Will the second be in Virginia where Sestak lives?

Sestak is trying to make the case for Toomey that a rabid far right wing fringe candidate is the same as a very moderate Republican who became a Democrat?

Toomey is promising to be a job killer.
He’s promising to curtail workers’ rights.
He’s already known for being a puppet of Wall Street.
And the best he can offer is obstructing the things that need to get done in DC.

The attempts at polarization by Sestak are just becoming silly.

Ed H-
Specter is pro-choice, for the stimulus, for public option, for raising minimum wage, pro union, believes in climate change/global warming, etc.

Toomey is more conservative than Rick ‘man-on-dog’ Santorum.

Sestak becomes more of a joke each day.

Specter is outdated, out of touch and out of his mind….

95 South-
Sestak is the one who is out of his mind. He’s not that good of a speaker. Both Specter and Toomey make him look bad.

He’s desperate for some media attention. Specter doesn’t have to debate Sestak because he’s holding all the cards. This debate and the White House job offer all come across as very desperate.

just remember, my name is Joe Sestak, that’s Joe Sestak.

David Diano-

I agree, totally. Specter is the man for the job in the Senate, no doubt. Toomey is going to come down hard on working families and be another back door tax raiser for those working families while his wealthy benegactors are able to take more from the Federal government while paying in less (a single year of corporate welfare could pay for decades of assistance for poor families). Maybe Sestak will resume his political career in a different vein. Maybe not. He does seem to look desperate in his bid for Senate, and some things he’s said have not looked very good for him.

Has anyone seen Sestak’s campaign site today? He is asking his few supporters to email the White House begging Obama to support Sestak instead of Specter! I can’t believe the audacity of this guy!

It’s looking more and more like Hater could be right – that Sestak is trying to pressure the White House. Sestak seems increasingly desperate to me.

“Dear Mr. President,

In 2008, we knocked on doors for you. We made calls for you. We traveled all over the country for you. We gave you our money, our time, and our votes. We believed in you, and we still do.

But we just don’t understand: why are you supporting Arlen Specter, someone who spent the last 30 years fighting against everything we believe in?

This May, I’m voting for someone who is a leader. Someone who shares our values. Someone who embodies the change we voted for in 2008—the change we still believe in. Someone like you.

We supported you and still do,
Mr. President, and now we’re supporting Joe Sestak.”

Sestak a leader!?! I’m going to email the White House a tell Obama that supporting Specter is the right thing to do!

Since Toomey’s Campaign Manager, Mark Harris, is in possession of documentation concerning the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) probe into Sestak’s relationship with UFCW Local 1776 President Wendell Young IV, this debate should prove interesting indeed! Perhaps Toomey can ask Representative Sestak whether he has ever accepted bribes from known labor racketeers, and exactly what became of the staggering sums of money that were “contributed” to Sestak for Congress by Wendell Young IV.

Hater-
I made contact with your source. I found him to be quite credible/rational. I was shocked by some of the new revelations. If true, I agree that jail time is likely.

There appear to be some politics in place, with possibly Republican efforts holding the story back until a more opportune (and damaging) time against the Democratic party. It seems that there is some wait-and-see for the Primary.

However, I think there are already a few “holes in the dike” and not enough little boys to plug them up. Considering the magnitude, I can’t see how this story won’t break into the public eye in the near future.

A note to the reporters already sitting on this story: if you don’t pull the trigger soon, you are going to get scooped on a scandal that will make Fumo look like a scofflaw.

Well then, I guess there’s no need to have any debates at all. We’ve just been told what we should believe.

If it’s all the same with you guys, I think I’ll just wait for the debate and judge for myself. If Specter doesn’t show up, I guess he won’t change anyone’s opinion of him.

Lee-
If Sestak continues with these antics and debates Toomey, he will confirm the growing (negative) opinion of him.
The funny thing is… Toomey’s going to be a lot gentler to Sestak than Specter.
