Pro-life Candidates Victorious in Pennsylvania

It came at 12:30 am on Nov. 3, the concession speech by Joe Sestak and the Victory speech of Pat Toomey, the new junior Senator from Pennsylvania. The Toomey-Sestak race was a nail-biter, the announcement coming after much earlier announcements of Tom Corbett's victory as Governor. In northeast PA, Lou Barletta won the Eleventh Congressional District seat over 26-year incumbent Paul Kanjorski and Tom Marino beating two-term Congressman Chris Carney in the Tenth Congressional district.
It was a clean sweep for pro-life Republicans!
Pro-life Toomey beat Sestak who was endorsed by the National Abortion Rights Action League. Tom Marino beat Congressman Carney who voted for Obama's health care law that contains no abortion restrictions. Carney had a poor scorecard from National Right to Life's PAC.
It was Lou Barletta's third run against Congressman Paul Kanjorski. Kanjorski chose to side with Obama's pro-abortion agenda and his health care fiasco. Seniors who lost their Medicare Advantage plans were not fooled by the Obama Health Care laws raid on Medicare and Kanjorski's attempt to trivialize it.
