The right references Wellstone?!?

"Specter is facing Representative Patrick J. Toomey, a conservative who has attacked Mr. Specter as a Ted Kennedy liberal too supportive of abortion rights and the United Nations.

I represent the Republican wing of the Republican Party, Toomey said recently.

Mr. Specter has said Toomey is not far right, he's far out."

Toomey gets off the better soundbite, though Paul Wellstone is spinning in his premature grave. At least it made sense when Howard Dean borrowed it. "Far out" sounds faux-60's; I'm hearing it in a Marcia Brady voice. (Groovy!)

Joe Hoeffel awaits the winner...
