where political analyst gasbags have insisted on only assigning the use of "populist ideology" by candidates to "Republicans" and never to Democrats.

So I think he is operating from that standpoint and attempting to deal with all those voters who had voted for him and 45 but not for Casey.

We had 2 years of a very rare circumstance here in PA with 2 elected (D) Senators at the same time (we finally got a (D) - Harris Wofford for the first time since the late '60s, initially by appointment and then election, in the early 90s after John Heinz was killed in an aircraft accident). Probably 90% of the time since, it has always been "split" 1 (D) / 1 (R).
