Again, obama and his pleas were totally REJECTED by the democrats.

The one who is eating crow and wiping MORE egg from his face tonight is obama.

The Obama administration supported Specter, but didn't do that much. This had to do with the base of the Democratic Party going with the more liberal Sestak.

Oh my, more revisionist spin.

Obama went to PA and campaigned for the old coot, where he stated how much he lurved Arlen. So did Biden. The DNC spent oodles of money for Arlen. Obama appeared in radio and TV ads for Arlen, he begged the dems to come out and vote for Arlen.

And was rejected, once again.

He decided to distance himself from Arlen only in the last 4-5 days, where it was clear Sestak was surging.

Obama is 0-4 campaigning for his fellow dems.

Specter's loss had nothing to due with Obama, it was about the base voting for the more liberal Democrat.

And yet Critz ran AGAINST obama's policies. He said he would have voted against obamacare, against cap&tax.

Yes, just like obama had nothing to do with VA, NJ and MA.

You made the assertion, put up the proof.

Everybody vs. Obama - WSJ.com

Critz ran AWAY from obama, as fast as he could. I imagine this WILL be a strategy used by the democrats in the fall. He and his policies are toxic.

Everybody vs. Obama - WSJ.com

Quote:
He declares that he wants to be "an independent voice" and highlights how he disagrees with Washington Democrats by opposing gun control and abortion rights. But he goes further and says he would have voted against ObamaCare and the cap-and-trade climate change bill passed by the House last year. Both pieces of legislation were supported by Murtha. Nor has Mr. Critz asked President Obama to campaign for him or even sought an endorsement.
