No one ever heard of Klink in Philly and thus there was not any desire for people to get out and support him.

I posted on here about Smuklers idiotic comments that the Dems could not win with Casey and should go with an ultra-liberal like Lois Murphy, but alas the thought police on this board deleted my post.

Great job...
