Comments on: Sore loser laws, independent run, Peg Luksik: Tying the week’s Specter loose ends http://campaigndiaries.com/2009/03/08/specter-loose-ends/ Obsessive political analysis Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:48:45 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Dan Warner http://campaigndiaries.com/2009/03/08/specter-loose-ends/comment-page-1/#comment-25875 Dan Warner Wed, 01 Jul 2009 16:33:29 +0000 http://campaigndiaries.com/?p=6691#comment-25875 I had breakfast with Peg Luksik today. I found her to be genuine and honest, a refreshing change from the non-representatives that we have today. Peg has a real chance here. She has a grasp of reality and it may be worth noting that lots of us here in PA dont like the 'change' we are getting with Obama. We also don't like Specter too much as he has shown he doesn't really care about the people of PA, he just cares about what can get him re-elected. Since Peg Luksik has run for governor twice, and has remained active doing her good work, without government money I might add, she has a good name here among those of us who call ourselves 'conservatives'.. The Campaign for Liberty has gotten behind her, meaning she may have an army waiting to spring into action. This means money and real grass roots support when it matters. You may consider a Peg Luksik a wildcard or 'spoiler', but I will he happy to call her 'senator'. Go Peg! I had breakfast with Peg Luksik today.

I like many people had never heard of "sore loser" laws and the reason I like this blog so much is you learn new things every day. As to what Specter will do you state the options well. The deciding factors may come down to personal matters such as his health, how angry and bitter he is at the prospect of being forced out and/or whether he might consider a run for Governor a more promising future.
