It's as easy as changing the address on your LTCF.
Oh, wait, there are no provisions in state law to effect an address change on your LTCF.
And, there are no provisions in state law to enable one to recall an elected official. Once elected, they're in until either voted out or are convicted of embezzlement of public moneys, bribery, perjury or other infamous crime.

No provision for the recal of a US Senator in PA. Also I believe Toomey will hold the line.....

I'm not ready to give up on Toomey yet. Casey sure, but Toomey still has a chance to stand up and do right.

Pretty much. US Senators and Representatives are Federal officials, and there is no provision in the constitution for recall. They can be removed from office only by expulsion by a 2/3 vote of their peers (Article 1 Section 5). Even conviction for a serious crime isn't automatic removal; it still requires action in congress.

Wait, Toomey has voted to outlaw your guns, they voted yesterday on this. Yup, I'm all in let's get on this right away.
On second thought, didn't Senator Toomey just vote against anti gun Federal Judge nominee Caitlin Halligan helping to kill her nomination? Didn't Senator Toomey just stand shoulder to shoulder with Rand Paul during the recent 13 hour speech fillibuster? Now there are some damn solid reason to recall Toomey.
Toomey isn't Arlen Fencesitter. I believe he's one of those fellas that holds his cards to his vest because there are plenty of conservatives that stay home and let Obamnistas get elected. I don't blame him, conservative voters seem to have this knack about shooting themselves in the foot.Corruption is the default behavior of government officials. JPC
