Sestak Airs TV Ads

April 20, 2010 6:16 AM | Comments
The political class has been waiting for Joe Sestak to start spending the $5 million he has in his campaign fund on a television ad blitz and he is about to oblige them. Pa2010.com reports that Sestak plans to go up on the air with his ads today (April 20). They had better be good.  The Delaware County congressman trails Arlene Specter, his rival for the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate, by double digits in most of the public polls. The primary is May 18th so Sestak has a lot of ground to make up in just a few weeks.

She is doing all of her schooling from the comfort of her family home near Temple University. Kennedy is among the thousands of youngsters in the Philadelphia region for whom the start of school this year means pulling up a chair in their living room, dining room or bedroom and logging on to a computer. They are attending virtual schools - a fast-growing trend in K-12 education, enrolling about 175,000 students nationwide and estimated 23,000 in Pennsylvania.
