The American Spectator : The Spectacle Blog : Toomey on Top

Text Size

After months of holding a lead over Rep. Joe Sestak in the Pennsylvania Senate race, Pat Toomey looked like he was starting to lose ground. A few weeks ago, several polls showed the race tightening -- two of them even gave Sestak his first lead since May. But in the last week, Toomey has taken back the lead. A new Morning Call tracking poll taken during the three day period ending yesterday shows him up 8 points, and he's up 4.6 points in the Real Clear Politics average of polls.

The polls may be right, but the Democratic machine will be hard at work in Philadelphia as usual. Don't know if it means anything but I see lots more Sestak signs in yards and along the road than I do Toomey signs, this in three solidly GOP congressional districts. Maybe this doesn't mean that much this year, but it seems like the Sestak supporters are vocal and active, even in rural areas. I think it will be a close and tough race.

Sestak can order his Toomey Stone right now.

RIP
Joe Sestak
As you can tell,
he's gone to hell

"Jack Bauer" above has it exactly right. Too bad Sestak can't be subjected to an interrogation conducted the way the "real" Jack Bauer would handle things.

Cheers Mark -- but I'm afraid that would only be the Jack of seasons 1-6 before he was "turned" by liberal brainwashing.

Anyone gotta a hacksaw?

He's making a little progress and he comes up with the dog poop commerical?
What married woman thinks ANY man would re-use the pooper scooper bag? I take that back - some wussy guy who'd actually own a dog by the name of Belle.
Reid isn't the only one who needs to man up in the Democractic Party. Sestak should have done what Stupak did!
