Finally, Some Good News

Not on healthcare, but I’ll take what I can get:
Some Pennsylvania insiders believe the Specter campaign’s aggressive pushback is a result of being spooked by Sestak’s strong second-quarter fundraising haul. Between April and June, Sestak’s campaign committee took in roughly $1 million — less than Specter’s $1.7 million but an impressive sum that Sestak operatives note came despite resistance from the Pennsylvania Democratic political establishment, which is backing Specter.
I find it very encouraging that the peabrained party establishment is not going to be able to starve Sestak out of the race. Probably because so many Democrats really really hate Specter and are appalled by the idea of him pretending to represent their party.
