I thought of politically non-astute people who might want to give an anti-Toomey opinion and would face the loaded question with no ability to do so, and wouldn't know what to make of it.

I knew that Bernie was going to be at CMU, but couldn't go. Toomey looks like the weasel character from the old Looney Tunes cartoon with foghorn leghorn. He's never been competent, just super well-funded. Typical right wing wall street teabag. I agree about his awkward inauthenticity. Their candidates are appallingly abysmal and incompetent, but are magically sold to the public as being intelligent and having a reasonable alternate viewpoint to the Dems. Of course, his throw away lines are canned and lame, and he can find some righties in our local media to pretend they're astute and witty.

I'm hoping we can jettison that greaseball, and Katie makes an excellent opponent. She'd be a good addition to the Senate Dems, I hope we can help her and she can then help us.
