Our sources in the Critz campaign, alerted us to an attack ad run in today's Johnstown Tribune Democrat, which attacks Casey and Critz. The ad was paid for by the Cambria County GOP. Cambria is home to Chairman Rob Gleason and we've been told his operatives have a stranglehold on the Party. What is unusual about this attack ad is its timing. The piece attacking Critz runs a day before the Cambria Democratic endorsement meeting; the day Altmire visits the Eastern region of the new PA 12th. We immediately contacted our source in the Altmire campaign. The disgruntled staffer explained it this way; Altmire personally sent out an SOS to the PAGOP for help for help in Cambria. The cynical reality is that if Altmire were to prevail in April and November he might be caucusing with Boehner. His boss, Altmire, wants to keep his options open and the PAGOP wants to keep their options open. The disgruntled staffer remains disillusioned and believes the campaign maybe poisoning themselves with voters in the Democratic voter-rich Cambria and Somerset.
