Hafer on Casey

Barbara Hafer stepped out of the Democratic primary race for Senate when Casey emerged as the establishment choice several months ago, and now she has gone on the record with her reasons for supporting him -- and they're not just about "getting rid of Santorum." I've heard some similar things from Babette Josephs, who credited Casey with real compassion concerning women's shelters and other issues important for "everyday folks," and called him a "good Catholic Democrat." There's been so much furor over Casey's views on abortion (and Pennacchio chimes in here with more of the same) that it's been hard to get any view of the rest of the man and his record, so every bit of informed input helps.
