Received this e-mail today from the great and awesome Joe Sestak (D. PA) as he prepares for a rematch against Tea Party Senator Pat Toomey (R. PA) in 2016:
Here's a Halloween surprise that isn't that surprising: today, Franklin & Marshall (F&M) polled Senator Toomey's approval at 22%, after he voted to extend the government shutdown, break the debt ceiling and force our economy into default. At 24% two months ago, his continuing free fall had already made him the most unpopular Senator in modern PA history.
It's not that Senators Toomey and Cruz are bad guys; their joint policies are just not representative of Pennsylvanians or our nation's people. Take today: Senator Toomey filibustered his third Presidential nomination of the week; and he's done the same to the vast majority of legislation offered on the Senate floor the last three years.
Masquerading this Senate inaction as though the Senate were actually alive may be politically wise (the latest Public Policy Poll says zombies are more popular than congress) but it doesn't represent us real people.
In 3 years, Senator Toomey has raised $3.5 million with the help of outside special interest groups; in 6 months, we have raised $1 million…with the help of you.
