Time for the Dems to give more consideration to Pennacchio

Bob Casey, Jr. is ahead of dark-ager Rick Santorum in the polls with a 52 - 34% lead according to the latest Qunnipiac poll.

Sen. Santorum has a split 43 - 41 percent job approval, his lowest ever and down from a 51 - 35 percent approval rating July 13. Pennsylvania voters split 41 - 42 percent on whether he deserves to be reelected. Santorum's politics are "about right," 40 percent say, while 29 percent say he is "too conservative," and 9 percent say he is "too liberal."

Casey has a huge lead everywhere but Pennsyltucky (probably that 9% that thinks he's too liberal).


If the 2006 election for Senator were being held today, and the candidates were Bob Casey Jr. the Democrat and Rick Santorum the Republican for whom would you vote?
