I'm of two minds on this race. On one hand, I really like McGinty, and even considered voting for her in the 2014 Gov primary even though her candidacy was totally hopeless. On the other hand, the idiotic PA Dem establishment really needs to be taught a lesson for sandbagging Sestak from the very beginning out of hurt feelings and a petty grudge from 6 years ago, and Sestak would probably be the stronger GE candidate anyway.

So yeah, probably gonna stick with Sestak here. McGinty is still young enough to run for other things in the future anyway.

Obviously, Democrats should pick Sestak if they want to win here. Toomey should be very thankful for the Democratic establishment in Pennsylvania. If it weren't for them, he'd be in much more trouble than he currently is.

Yup. Utter morons they are. This is a guy that took down an incumbent Senator that had the support of everyone from Obama and downwards when everyone said he had no chance. On top of that, he was written off for dead in the general, yet managed to swim against the tide of the massive Republican wave and only lose by a whisker. But somehow we're supposed to believe he's "unelectable?" Yeah, okay. Compare it to McGinty's record of getting 8% in a gubernatorial primary. And I'm not even going to mention Fetterman...

This is and always was about revenge for Sestak having the audacity to run against Specter. They'd rather lose with someone else than win with him. If Toomey is re-elected (I'd bet on him at this point), and Democrats come one seat away from Senate control, we all know who to thank. Even if Sestak still does end up winning the primary, this whole affair is going to damage his chances. In fact, it already has.

Dems are gonna win Pa, NH, FL, NV, Wi & IL and win the election against Trump 272-266. Its he GOP that should be worried with Trump. They will do this because McConnell put them on recond as defunding Obamacare and defubding planned parenthood

Sestak will be our nominee.
