Toomey is NOT De Mint's Lapdog?

According to the NYT, Toomey is a new kind of Republican Freshman- a moderate?

The evidence- he supported repeal of DADT and he was neutral on the Obama-Republican tax deal/compromise/capitulation. And he had Susan Collins at a fund-raiser even though she is pro-choice. Overwhelming evidence.

On the side that he is a free market ideologue: he was president of Club for Growth whose idea of the best economy is somewhere around 1870 when the railroads owned the country and unions could be dealt with by Pinkerton's thugs. He does not "believe" in climate change. He wants to repeal the Affordable Care Act. He wants to privatize social security (which went GREAT for Chile for example). He mocks sensible gun legislation ("My idea of gun control is steady aim.").

He is clearly an experienced politician. He won 51% of PA's vote. He wants to get re-elected. I won't hold my breath that he will resuscitate the moderate wing of the Republican party which looks more like a few limp chicken feathers than a wing these days.

TEA Day protester saved by hand she is biting

Jim Buck gets all the credit:

Woman okay after falling into Susquehanna River
A quiet, solo protest against massive federal government spending ended in a city woman being rescued from the cold waters of the Susquehanna River on Wednesday morning.
Joanne Millard, 68, a resident at Riverfront Apartments, slipped on a rock and then fell into the water while dumping tea leaves from a plastic bag into the river to protest the recent trillions of dollars in government spending.
