Today is an AMAZING day for Pennsylvanians - here's 5 reasons why:

Edited on Thu Jan-04-07 02:51 PM by LynneSin

(In no particular order of importance)

Bob Casey Jr - New Junior Senator from Pennsylvania replacing Rick Santorum

Jason Altmire - New Representative from PA-04 (near Pittsburgh) replacing Melissa Hart

Joe Sestak - New Representative from PA-07 (Philly Suburbs) replacing Curt Weldon

Patrick Murphy - New Representative from PA-08 (Philly Suburbs) replacing Mike Fitzpatrick (doesn't Murphy look great in his uniform - he's one of the new elected Iraq War veterans)

Chris Carney - New Representative from PA-10 (Northeastern PA including much rural area) replacing Don Sherwood

It's a good day to be a Pennsylvanian (well I did live there for 34 years :D )

2. Yeah but I'm glad to see those corrupt crooks Weldon, Hart & Sherwood gone

As my grandfather would say 'They've been feeding from the trough for too long'. Getting rid of Fitzpatrick was just an added bonus. Shame we couldn't get Gerlach out
