"Arlen Specter has been loyal to no one" - KDKA TV Pittsburgh had a piece that featured
a tea bagger leader and an Independent voter who are in the"kick 'em all out" mode. One of them, with union ties said "Arlen Specter has been loyal to no one". He said they were going to take a close look at Sestak as an alternative to Specter. The tea bagger leader didn't say anything about Toomey who will undoubtedly get their support.

2. "Loyal", goodluck finding Joe Sestak in that definition.....
After all... just in the past couple days... he refused to even help our Democrat Martha Coakley, a tough reformer on wall street by making calls and sending an email encouraging folks to do the same on behalf of Martha. You could even potentially say Joe may have helped kill healthcare by sitting on the sidelines while watching one of his mates walk the plank when he could have helped and chose not to.

Fortunately Arlen Specter led by example as a loyal Democrat by trying to help Martha. For Loyal or team player... those clearly are not in Joe's vocabulary as we saw with the Massachusetts special election. See "SELF-SERVING" for Sestak.

3. "Refused"? Please provide a link.
Coakley's failure is Coakley's failure. She had a 31 point lead and blew it. COAKLEY refused to campaign for Coakley. So stop grasping at straws for any wild allegation you can use to smear Sestak.

Sestak actually has several loyal veterans from his Navy days involved in his campaign. Look Up Bill Walsh in Sestak's congressional office, and ask Bill about Joe's loyalty. Except you really don't want to know, you only want to smear.
