Another hypothetical, this time if Specter won his Democratic primary.

Toomey would have probably destroyed him. He was unpopular if I recall correctly.

Did his popularity dip or something? Granted he always had won in fair GOP years, but in 2004 he had bipartisan support since Kerry won PA.

I doubt it. Voters would have seen him as super flakey.

PPP has Specter in even worse shape than Sestak; Specter was trailing Toomey by something like 49/40.

Toomey, and he would've won by a bigger margin.
