Abby Wisse Schachter writes from Pennsylvania on the Toomey race:

He’s seconded by former Sen. Rick Santorum — who reached out to Democratic voters through social issues but who agrees that jobs and the economy are key now. “I think Pat Toomey must emphasize jobs first and foremost,” Santorum says.
Santorum also notes some Toomey advantages: Toomey “was a small business owner, and he understands more than most what makes a business-friendly environment that creates jobs. As a congressman, [Toomey] established a strong record of fiscal discipline and how critical it is to keep taxes low . . . and we can’t forget that Sen. Specter was one of the pivotal votes that allowed the $800 billion stimulus bill to pass.
“Specter had a chance to put the brakes on this reckless stimulus plan — but rather chose to abdicate that responsibility and be the key vote to move that legislation forward. Pat would be well-served to remind voters as often as possible of his opponent’s very weak record on the economy.”
