Losers

Robert Kerns

Opened the door to Jim Mathews in Montco.

John McCain

He needs conservatives working for him, not trying to get Alan Keyes and Bob Barr on the ballot, not to mention a lack-luster visit to a key state as he talks about Israel instead of the lagging economy.

Jason Altmire

Major endorsement from the NRA.

House Democrats

A week after the first round of defectors made public their belief DeWeese should be deposed, nobody else steps forward. Momentum lost?

Ed Rendell

Getting his Republican predecessor to say he’s worth at least a few points for Obama this fall only boosts his reputation as a masterful politician.

State legislators not signing on to special session on reform

They must be spending to much time with their fellow Harrisburg elites and not realize what the general voting public out there is saying. It’s a great campaigning opportunity for their opponents in the current political climate.

"According to the grand jury, millions of dollars in taxpayer funds, resources and state employees were illegally used for political campaign purposes - including to remove the Nader-Camejo ticket from the ballot."

-- Independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader on his decision to ask the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to reopen their order that he pay $81 million in court costs in connection with Democrats’ efforts to challenge his campaign’s state ballot position during the 2004 election, when he was previously a candidate. Nader’s move came after a state grand jury investigation resulted in indictments against 12 people in connection with the case.
