I know it's an internal but this might actually end up being a real race - http://www.politicspa.com/cartwright-poll-cartwright-leads-holden-42-36/33790/ (http://www.politicspa.com/cartwright-poll-cartwright-leads-holden-42-36/33790/)

Hopefully we can knock out a Blue Dog in a safe D district.

Any chance there could be a competitive race here or is whoever the primary winner is basically the victor in November?

It's now a 57-42 Obama district and this (http://www.teamlaureen2012.com/) is the Republican nominee.

Yeah. Exactly. When she was running for the Senate, she was at the very bottom of my list of candidates to support. Needless to say, I'm rooting for Holden.

So Michele Bachmann is running in a solid D district?


Title: Sestak endorses Cartwright

The news goes from bad to worse for Holden: Joe Sestak backs Cartwright. A rally is planned for this Saturday.

I also found out that Sestak is backing the Occupier write in candidate against Allyson Schwartz which is LOL-worthy even considering Sestak's ideology.

I read that Sestak endorsed the guy because he is a former staffer of him.

Ah, that's right. I think he was a campaign staffer.
