- The democrats are going to keep the senate, and take back the house -- 2002.
The democrats are going to win the white house, take back the senate, and take back the house -- 2004.
The democrats are going to win the senate, take back the house, and impeach the president -- 2006.
Ric's got some work still to do, but his problem has been his base, and I think the base is beginning to realise that some wounds are better left to heal (like Ric's supporting Arlen Specter).

- Yeah... but that's one heck of a wound to heal though.
Still, that Pennsylvania is warming up for the GOP is a good sign for Republicans elsewhere. Maybe the Dems steam is running out?

- 1. Santorum was born fighting
2. Casey is an unknown (as much as Webb is) but is known because of his name. His dad was governor from 1987 to 1995. Cut from the same cloth.
3. With Casey being pro-life (although I couldn't confirm this on his website) and now the Green party candidate will hurt him with the left
4. Momentum is going the right way for the GOP in this race
5. Webb could learn something from Santorum...but he's to busy out fundraisng.

Hooray for the GOP! They can't win on their own...so they enlist their ideological opposite hoping a Hail Mary will save them...good luck with that.

Hell, it ain't Republicans voting for the guy, and it isn't like the Dems haven't run third party candidates against Republicans, right?
Secondly, it sure as heck doesn't explain Casey's drop from 20 points, not to mention Democratic dissatisfaction concerning Casey's pro-life stance.

- Casey is still polling at 50%+. What the GOP wants to do is try to bring it down to 47-48% so their candidate has a shot.
Can you give me an example of Democrats solely funding a third party candidate to depress the numbers of a Republican candidate?

If you can offer an instance of Republicans solely funding a third party candidate...

- Santorum is the #1 on my list of least favorite Republicans.
I find him a repulsive human being and will be happy to see him leave Washington.

Yes...this instance.

- "Democratic dissatisfaction concerning Casey's pro-life stance."
I think its a bit rash to say that there is Democratic dissatisfaction with any candidate having a pro-life stance. Democrats learned a long time ago that we can welcome pro-life and pro-choice into the same party, especially when not doing so would help an out of touch politician like Santorum stay in office.
While Casey may be on the edge our the Democratic mainstream, time and time again Santorum has proved to be further and further away from the mainstream of America in philosophy.

- Casey has kept a 10-12 point lead since last December... I dont know where your getting that 20 point non-sense (he may have blown a 20 point lead in a Democratic Primary, but thats very differant.)
