    Good for them

    I'm all for moderates of any kind--and may they defeat the radicals of both sides of the political road

    I'm curious about the use of the word stealth to describe this. I assume the use of stealth is meant to be something sinister---but there does not seem to be anything secretive about this which would justify such a term---other than biased media playing to their audience

    I took a que from the sentence below —

    ...The Kennedy Democrats PAC rolled out quietly two months ago with little fanfare and no press...
    That spells “stealth” to me. I am curious, have you as a Pennsylvanian, heard of the money the Kennedy’s are dropping around you? By the way, to term the Kennedy’s as “moderates” says more about you than them, especially the Robert Kennedy wing. They are moderates pretty much like that other moderate family, the Soros’s and going about it the same way.

    First of all the term moderates comes from your link--and no Robert Kennedy would not be in my stable.

    I do not keep up with western PA politics which is were this came from--that is my short coming. I would suggest however that far to many PACs are less than open--but it seems this one does not fit to stealth.

    The issue is not party---the issue is some sense of reasonableness---currently in short supply.

    “Reasonable” is a comparative term.

    My mother loved the Kennedys. One of my early memories of her is from 1968, when she cried all day long because Robert Kennedy was shot a and killed. It devastated her.

    One of my earliest political memories is from 1981, when Reagan was shot. I was in grad school at the time, but left class to go sit in my car and listen to the radio for hours. Fortunately, Reagan made it.

    And what a beautiful place to sit and stare, I wish I'd have never left the west.
