YES! YES! and YES! I don't know about the underprivileged, but I do know that Pennsylvania will lose it's most effective champion in years! People say he has a big mouth (I find that hard to believe with that "boyish" face, but others no more about that than I do.), but he always fights for Pennsylvania to get their share. Isn't that what he's supposed to do?
The other guy doesn't want the job and had to be pressured by his party to take it. He's running on his name, which is his father's with a jr. after it. Even in Democrat rallies, they hide him in the back and they don't let him talk. What kind of Pennsylvania champion can a guy like that be?
Furthermore, Casey's views on abortion, contraception and the right to turn off a feeding tube and let a patient die are exactly the same, if not more extreme than Santorum's. Casey wasn't in Congress at the time of the Schiavo case so he wouldn't have been able to effect it one way or the other if he went down there. That doesn't mean he didn't support her family rather than the ex husband.

If the man can't be bothered to live in PA and deal with the daily issues of living here, send his kids to our schools and pass the damn PSSA'S that they shove down our kids throats 24/7, the horrible taxes, the unemployment and the huge number of people on assistance...then he needs to "get out of Dodge" and find a job that I don't have to pay him for!

Yes. He's an honest, caring person. You may not agree with all of his positions, but he's a good guy. Certainly better than the guy he's up against. Yikes.

No. He owns a home in PA, but doesn't even live in PA. He is too aligned with the neocons who have hi-jacked my beloved Republican Party.

Yes. Santorum should be retained.

The guy doesn't even live in Pennsylvania. Yes he has a house there but he and his family don't even live in it. How can you represent your state if you don't even live in it?

His political spectrum is way to the right, the reason why he is losing.

No. He is a fool and will lose by many votes.
