Tim: Don’t spend too much time debating with “Jon.” The only thing I can say is that I really hope “Jon” doesn’t reflect some new paranoid state of Raja. While I disagreed with him on several things I really can’t believe that Raja would support “Jon’s” hyperbole and vitriol. I hope not anyhow. Raja used to just call me when he had something to talk about. Oh well- I have no idea why “Jon” likes to mention me or seemingly wants to reflect negatively on my time as a boy scout. Such is life I’m afraid in the anonymous/fake ID/lack-of-courage-land of todays internet blogs. On the plus side, if you are pretending to be me you just missed my sons birthday so cough up a gift

When in doubt and all else fails, Todd, use right winged generalizations to get your point across. Todd Aikin and Richard Mourdock
would love you.
As for you declaring your post as being the best, don’t hurt yourself patting yourself on your back.

Matt Smith is an abortionist, anti-drilling, welfare expanding, tax raising, reckless spending, liberal Harrisburg career politician. PERIOD END OF STORY. Best Post of the election cycle right here.

A half dozen ads and nothing about what Raja would do as a senator. Just attack Smith. Really? No wonder. During his PG interview he couldn’t even answer the questions untIl he got some BS answers from his buddy Mark Harris! How can he have a degree from CMU and be so “clueless”? (the Tribs word, not mine…

I saw Mr. Rajas latest political ad and I agree that midnight pay grab back in “05″ was a terrible trick to play on the PA taxpayers!
However, wasn’t Matt Smith elected in 06????
Also, I’m still at a loss on why Raja had his wife speak for him during that one commercial. Why can’t he convey his own
messages? Maybe Matt smith should get his
his wife and all his relatives to speak for him
during one of his commercials. I guess the more the merrier.

@Jon: No Jon, my name really is Tim. I recommend taking off the tinfoil hat you are wearing and recognize that alot of us (Rs and Ds alike) know Mr Raja very well and are disappointed in his record. I cant help but notice you didnt take up my challenge to you to demonstrate how Raja is a reformer. He never floated a single proposal to make good on the 20% tax cut he promised my wife and I while standing on our doorstep.

Matt Smith had a desperate phone call with a union boss yesterday conceding he was behind and needed money to fund his last week of TV. My brother is in that union, and is a Business Agent. Smith has been good to our union though, he’s always voted for project-labor agreements, to prevent privatizing of liqour stores, and for Davis-Bacon. Smith is good for the unions so I’ll vote for him, but it looks like he’s going to lose

It’s unfortunate that such a positive ad-with no design except to inform voters of who Raja really is (by someone who really knows him!)-is followed by such negative and ugly debate! This ad is refreshing because it is nothing but positive and it speaks to the man that Raja is-a tireless, ambitious, determined & hard-working American who came here from India and who has been very successful ever since. This man does not give up and he won’t give up! Who better than his wife to speak for him by the way-it’s about time we heard someone make some sense in these political ads! Way to go Neeta and Raja!!!!

Tim = DAN MILLER. Dan, give it up, as all polls indicate, besides Matt’s of course, Matt is going to lose to Raja. I’m sorry your little boy scout dream to run for Matt’s house seat is not going to work out. You guys can commiserate on Nov. the 7th. Go watch re-runs of Woodstock and eat organic food together.
