As violence continues in Libya, Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) released a statement today which declares his support of immediate sanctions and a potential no-fly zone over Libya.
It’s been an interesting week in PA politics, and certainly better for some than others. See who had a good week, and who didn’t – read this week’s Ups and Downs!
PoliticsPA broke the latest poll in PA-Senate 2012 yesterday, and it showed good news for Bob Casey. The DEP has taken a step (likely the first) toward a scaled-back Marcellus oversight stance. The Orie trial goes on (and on). And workers in PA continue to flex their muscle in a series or rallies across the state.
Latest Municipoll, obtained by PoliticsPA: 46% of likely voters have a favorable opinion of Casey, compared with only 30% of voters with an unfavorable opinion. Obama’s at 51%, Corbett’s at 48%, and 57% of voters favor a Marcellus gas tax and selling the state’s liquor stores.

Freshman NEPA Congressmen Lou Barletta and Tom Marino did not hide their conservative colors Tuesday night at King’s College’s Congress on Campus event where they both shared similar approaches to the national deficit, “Obamacare,” illegal immigration, and the labor market.
State Senator Jeff Piccola, one of the authors of the school choice bill pending the Senate, explains that his bill would expand educational opportunities – and make fiscal sense – for all Pennsylvanians.
Neither Dems, GOP willing to blink as the federal government heads for shutdown. PA Republicans and labor eye each other warily. Newt’s night at Penn made national headlines. And is it just us, or has Rick Santorum been in the news a lot lately?
Barack Obama may inadvertently have made Rick Santorum more relevant in the 2012 GOP primary. The President’s decision to cease his administration’s legal defense of the Defense of Marriage Act has brought Santorum’s signature issue to the forefront of conservatives’ attention.
“The idea that the Crusades and the fight of Christendom against Islam is somehow an aggression on our part is absolutely anti-historical,” Santorum said in Spartanburg on Tuesday. “And that is what the perception is by the American left who hates Christendom.”
Will tonight's U.S. Senate debate affect your decision?
