What's a Democrat to do?

If you live in Pennsylvania and you are pro-choice, you may finally have a candidate to choose:

Abortion rights leader Kate Michelman is thinking of jumping into the Senate race in Pennsylvania as an independent.

Michelman is appalled by Democratic Party leaders'’ selection of anti-abortion candidate Bob Casey Jr. as their choice to try to unseat two-term Republican Sen. Rick Santorum.

This would turn the race from lean Democrat to lean Republican in a heartbeat, putting the Democratic Party endorsement of a pro-life Bob Casey Jr. as one of the biggest mistakes of this young election year.

One last thing:

Casey is Pennsylvania's state Treasurer and the son of former Gov. Robert Casey, who clashed with Michelman over the abortion issue 14 years ago at the Democratic convention in New York. Bill Clinton and party leaders barred the elder Casey from addressing the convention.

The reason Casey wasn't allowed to speak is because he failed to endorse Bill Clinton for President. It had nothing to do with his view on abortion.

Just thought I'd make that clear.
