NY Times online-positive Sestak article - AFTER he wins, WH likes him.

[old mark]

Sestak is extremely well qualified and determined, managed his own campaign:

Interesting article, with more information on Joe Sestak than I had before I voted for him...
Maybe they ran out of things to say about Rand Paul and the 'baggers, needed to fill space...

1. WH never disliked Sestak, who was originally recruited to run in the house by Rahm.

Sestak is a Democrat, but he's not a liberal Democrat, like some want to imagine.
He will however mostly vote as a rank and file for Obama's agenda, and that's good.

2. Impressive candidate

Running back and forth from Philly to Pittsburgh and catching 2 hours of sleep - sounds like a well deserved and hard fought victory.

But Toomey and republicans will fight REALLY nasty in the fall, especially after the SC ruling. We can expect a lot of swift boat type ads out there...
