2. Sestak's opponent, McGinty has endorsed Hillary

There's a 3rd person running, but he's a small town mayor who gets only 15% in the polls. A good guy, but I hope he doesn't end up a spoiler by taking votes away from Sestak and giving Katie McGinty a primary win. She is yuge pro-fracking, as is her campaign manager Ed Rendell. She was censured by the state ethics commission when she worked for then Governor Ed Rendell, and that censure was upheld on appeal by the state supreme court for an ethics violation of awarding several million dollars worth of state contracts to the Big Energy/Big Fracking corporations employing her lobbyist husband. Sort of mini-me couple of Bill & Hill.

If any one wants to elect a Pennsylvania Senator who will vote however she's told by 3rd Way Dems, then Katie's the gal for you!

All those millions funneled in by out of state corporate interests has been used for blatantly lying ads for which she has been called out by the media.
