Pennsylvania is one of the GOP’s “firewall” states they feel they need to keep control of the Senate. Well that firewall must be made by Microsoft because it is failing rapidly:

With just a few weeks to go until November 7, Senator Rick Santorum’s chances of securing reelection fade a bit more every day. The latest Rasmussen Reports election poll finds that challenger Bob Casey, Jr. has a thirteen point advantage, 54% to 41%. That’s the same margin we saw in our last survey.

When leaners are added, Casey leads by twelve, 55% to 43%. Leaners are those who don’t initially commit to voting for either candidate but express a preference when asked a follow-up question.

The race remains in the “Democrat” column in our Senate Balance of Power summary

Perhaps Ricky boy should try some more LOTR analogies.
