Betcha Republicans fund a big Green Party run in the 2010 PA Senate race....

It's the only way Toomey will win.

1. I bet you are exactly right.

That is why it is incumbent upon Specter to act quickly to establish his Democratic bonafides.

2. That's a good strategy.

Some Dems would rather lose than vote for Specter, probably. Not easy to vote for someone you've been opposing for a lifetime.

3. In 2006 "GOP Donors Funded Entire PA Green Party Drive"

OK, we've done it. We've nailed it down: Every single contributor to the Pennsylvania Green Party Senate candidate is actually a conservative -- except for the candidate himself.

The Luzerne County Green Party raised $66,000 in the month of June in order to fund a voter signature drive. The Philly Inquirer reported yesterday that $40,000 came from supporters of Rick Santorum's campaign (or their housemates). Also yesterday, we confirmed that another $15,000 came from GOP donors and conservatives. Only three contributions, totaling $11,000, remained as possible legit donations.

Today, I confirmed that those came from GOP sources.

- The Green Party listed a $1,000 check from a Bill Wickerman of Covington & Burling. There is no such person. However, a Bill Wichterman works there. He's a Republican lobbyist who has also given to Santorum this campaign.

- James Holman, who in the past has supported GOP House candidate Howard Kaloogian, Sen. Sam Brownback (R-KS), and Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R-AZ), was incorrectly listed by the Greens as "James Howmen." He disclosed that he was an editor at the San Diego Reader; a James Holman is the publisher there.

4. They should have every reason to believe that there will be those who normally vote Dem

who will vote for a 3rd party like the Green and assure a GOP win.
