Just to be clear, I wouldn't be switching to Republican next term to sabotage the Republican nominee. I'd do it to help ensure we have an election between the two best candidates possible. I wouldn't, for instance vote for a fruitcake hoping that that would help the democrat win easier.
I really wish I was able to vote in the PA Republican primary this year. Especially because of the Toomey/Specter campaign.
Toomey really scares me. He's a far out batshit insane ultra-conservative. Specter, I don't like either, (he waffles day to day and his part in the Warren Commission [he invented the Magic Bullet Theory] makes his existance assinine) but his more moderate stances are much more appealing than Toomey's.
I'm voting for Joe Hoeffel anyway, but I'd rather see Specter hold such an important seat rather than Toomey. Specter barely survived too. It was a very close primary vote.
A toomey/Hoeffel run would be much more beneficial to Hoeffel too. PA doesn't like far wings on either side. We are pretty moderate statewide. His chances against Specter are actually kinda low. The chance of Toomey being a US Senator... *shudder.
