And he has the guts to call me a hack. HAHA . Even I dont think the impossible is possible.

If you're talking about me, please refute everything I posted. Please address every point about Santorum's 1990 and 1992 campaigns.

That was fourteen and sixteen years ago.  Just because Santorum was able to make a come back in a house race over a decade a go doesn't mean he will be able to do the same now, in a Senate race in a very bad GOP year in which he is a very close ally of a very unpopular President.  He is done.

Those were his tough races, Smash. It proves that when he is underestimated, his tough campaigning carries him over the finish line.

It was different races, different time, different type of year, and he didn't have the strong negative feelings that are in his direction that exist now.

It's only too bad we are stuck with Casey because we didnt have to compromise in PA.

That maybe the biggest things for Dems to look at, what are you gaining in Casey?  He's another vote for the Bush agenda basically, he is as conservative if not more conservative than Ben Nelson.  Good luck, it's basically like us losing Chaffee, who cares?

Casey is better than Nelson on economic issues, Casey is a HUGE step above Santorum.

I would say he is more of a Bill Nelson or a Carper.  I dont expect him to vote on anything that most democrats wont vote for. Only pretty much abortion. I suspect he'd only vote dem 85% of the time or 90. Def not a vote for Bush agenda though.

Considering he will join Benny Nelson as the only other pro-life Democrat in the senate, he certainly will be more conservative than his senate partner from PA, that moron Specter

On social issues, yes, not really on economic issues, Casey is pretty much a populist.  I'm not exactly a Casey fan, however he is MUCH MUCH better than the alternative that is there now in Rick Santorum.
