Don't discount a liberal third party candidate/independent popping up if Specter gets the nomination.
Even so, Specter has a major advantage now depending on how he plays his new role as a Dem. But Toomey is just about screwed at this point.
I do agree with Lunar though, I would like to see how all this plays out in polls in the next few weeks.
Yeah, I think this actually improves his chances since he'll have an easy line of attack. Still slim chances, but he doesn't need such a perfect environment.
Easy line but only popular with those who are already going to vote for him. Dems just want 60 so they won't care. Plus, PA likes the moderates. Specter vs. Toomey in a general election goes to Specter easily.
