#6 The relatively conservative Murtha...

That's Newspeak to say he hasn't spent more than a toe tap time with card carrying, or associated with, known marxists or neo-marxists.

#7 Well, he pretended to be conservative back when his district was more conservative. He made a killing on defense contract corruption for himself and his cronies. Then they went and redistricted him, and suddenly he's the representative of a bunch of deep-blue Mon Valley brownfield unionist hardasses. Now he's looking for leftist-liberal union cred, because that's what gets you elected in areas like Johnstown and the Mon Valley.

#8 Woah. Even Newsweek sez he's in trouble...

One piece of potentially bad news for Democrats: word around the state is that Rep. John Murtha, a veteran member of the U.S. House delegation and ally of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, could lose his seat west of here in Johnstown.

I know that district---I covered Bobby Casey at a campaign picnic there a couple of years ago---and know why Murtha is in trouble. It is not because he came out against the war in Iraq in a forthright way; it is because he seemed to be trashing the Marines when he did it. He was wrong on at least some of his facts, as it turned out, and was probably wrong in the way he went about airing them.

Murtha seemed to be shooting off his mouth, and they tend not to like that kind of thing in the hills and valleys of the Appalachian Mountains.

#9 Oh, MoveOn will really represent the people of Pennsylvania. Murtha, do everyone a favor and resign. You are a disgrace to your office.

#10 Why you ungrateful redneck racist bastards! I'd appreciate your vote on November 4th. Thanks in advance...
