Club For Growth wingnut Patrick Toomey, who almost knocked off US Sen. Arlen Specter last time, is reconsidering his decision not to challenge Specter in 2010.
The reason? All together now…Specter’s vote for the stimulus package. Presumably b/c Pennsylvania’s just rolling in cash and new jobs:
Toomey had been publicly mulling a run for governor in 2010, but he told talk-radio host Bobby Gunther Walsh just how much he objected to the stimulus bill: “Senator Specter cast the deciding vote on the very worrisome stimulus Bill, when he could have negotiated with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and President Obama for more productive tax cuts and less wasteful spending.”
If he runs, Toomey will likely win the primary as most of the moderates have been run off from the Republican Party in Pa. Flip another seat to the D’s.
And the Troglodytes continue their march to political extinction.
