PA: Rasmussen: Toomey crushes Specter but a tie against Sestak

[Badger]

Toomey will lose this race going away.  He is a 100% misfit in PA, but the far right will get their wish as he will lead the ticket (sigh).

How is Toomey a 100% misfit?  Remember, this is the state that elected Rick Santorum.  Toomey is a better candidate than Santorum by far.  To suggest that he will lose this race "going away" is ridiculous.

Santorum was elected in a very strong republican year (1994) against Wooford and struggled against a weak opponent in 2000.  He was bombed in 2006.  Watch and learn.  Once Toomey falls behind after the democratic primary is over, he's done.

Agreed, while it won't be quite the same margins as Sestak won't do quite as well as Casey in the T & portions of the west, this has the makings of 2006 all over again in the SE.   Toomey is going to get utterly obliterated there, and he simply wont be able to recover from those margins. 

As much as I would like these analyses to be correct, 2010 stands to be politically a lot more similar to 1994 than 2006.
