Bzzzt. Nope. That was for the Republican primary. He still has to face
the
Democrat, and both of those got more than he got. So, in the vote count,
he
came in third.

The way I see it, is that he is now a candidate though. I suppose the
main election will tell.

But, whatever...

The Reps totaled 351,000 votes, the Dems over 500,000 votes in the
primary.

The main election will indeed tell. Not a chance in hell he get
75,000 votes that voted Dem. More likely moderate Reps will cross
over to vote for the moderate Dem rather than the loonitarian.

His rhetoric is "take our country back" which is white man code for
"we ain't about to let them negroes run our country."


It should be interesting to watch. It's really a referendum on Mitch
McConnell. He must be quaking in his boots. Now he's trying to make nice
with Paul.




Sadly, if you look at Kentucky voter history, them thar Kentuckians tend
to vote more heavily for Dems in the primaries, and then the Repubs
scare them into voting Republican in the general election.
Loonytarianism, though, might scare some moderate Republicans into
voting Democratic. I don't see the Dems picking up that seat, though.

Long as we have this suck hole 2 party system we'll have the same insane
partisan antics we have now with the bullies on the right and the limpdicks
on the left. The DNC and GOP want you all to stay in line and you do it
very well.
Idiots on both sides have anyone that doesn't want to fit the mold labeled
as nuts, crazy, loony, etc.

Wait a minute...you think that a multiple party system (much more tha
two) is the answer?

Haven't studied much modern European history, eh?

He's too old. He needs to leave the stage.

i would have voted for him if sestak wasnt around. specter's 80, and
has had cancer...we dont need an 86 yr old fossil in the senate. and
toomey, according to 1 analysis, is the 3rd most right wing
legistlator since 1995...even to the right of jesse helms.

Fortunately the people of PA don't have to make that choice. It was nice
that he switched parties, and I suppose in the scheme of things he would be
considered a moderate, but his behavior during the Thomas confirmation
hearings, esp. his treatment of Anita Hill, was not something for which I
and others could forgive.

He's already said he would support Sestak also.

For a real giggle, read some of Rand Paul's statements on his beliefs.
