Hope Springs Or Does It?

Andrew Sullivan notes that Robert P. Casey is leading Sen. Rick Santorum in the race for the Pennsylvania U.S. senate seat next year:

HOPE SPRINGS: A Ratzingerian senator is now fourteen points behind his rival. You know who I mean.

What he doesn't note is that Casey is a devout Catholic and staunch anti-abortion Democrat. Casey's father was Robert Casey Sr., also a devout Catholic, who was denied a chance to speak at the Democratic National Convention in 1992 because of his strong, anti-abortion beliefs.

Not only is Casey Jr. anti-abortion, he's anti-gay marriage.

Sullivan went completely daft around this time last year over GWB--I haven't been back on his site since. By that time, his roller-coaster ups and downs had gotten to be way too difficult ride.


Regarding Santorum, the Florentine cloak he smothered Toomey with did him in also. That Macchiavelli role is an against-type killer for a fresh-faced guy with 'principles.'

Interestingly, the outcome of Spector-Toomey looms large in the current dithering over to-filibuster-or-not-to-filibuster.
