this adds a little bit of excitement, makes things different heading forward. sestak s win would be an upset at this point with specter leading in the polls, but if specter does win the primary and heads off against toomy, that would be a rematch of sorts. in 2004 he faced toomey in the republican primary and beat him by a very, very narrow margin. it would be one to watch. there s a lot of money at stake, a lot of money that could be put forward into advertising, so we ll likely see a lot of that on the airwaves heading into november. jane: molly line in philly for us. thanks. jon: one area in the pacific northwest is in desperate need of jobs, and a proposed water bottling plant could provide them. but one group is trying to block the plant from ever being opened. we ll tell you why on the job hunt next.
prevent another tragic incident such as occurred in london, madrid and moscow. jane: you said those three cities provide a roadmap of sorts for what we should be looking at potentially that could come down for us. no doubt about it. when we look at not just the transportation systems in terms of subways, we look at light rail systems. take for instance the truck, we need to get high security on both types of transportation. simply because you can leave a piece of luggage in an amtrak train and get off and set a time up at the station, penn station in new york town would have a real tragedy on your hand. it would shut the city down for a good number of days. but thank got intelligence sources and law enforcement sources are on top of all these
primary thing because you can cause the greatest a. havoc. but d the greatest amount of havoc. but the maritime system, our ports are so porous. and we have some spend a lot more money and do a better job analyzing what goes through our country. these are very, very important ways to deal with the situation that we face today. jane: bill, thank you. jon: many in the gop see him as a long shot? the 2012 presidential contest but he s already warm up, taking shots at president obama and members of his own party, calling them too close to big business. he s a corporatist. we have corporatists in the republican party. jon: what s next for congressman ron paul? where does he see the republican
jane: a lot of attention i probably don t have to tell you already on the november midterms and whether republicans can gain ground on democrats. well, the senate race in pennsylvania is one of several generating a whole lot of buzz. democratic congressman joe sestak and republican candidate pat toomey faced off in the philly. absent from the debate, though, democratic senator arlen specter. molly line, those candidates certainly weren t going to let anybody forget that specter skipped that debate. why did he? reporter: yeah, certainly very noticeable. i spoke briefly with specter s folks, and essentially they said he agreed to do one debate. it s slated for may 1st, it s a saturday night. who knows how many people will tune into that. they have yet to have the primary here, slated more may 18th. specter has to beat democratic challenger joe sestak although specter is lead anything the polls for this. toomey agreed to debate sestak,
big boost. first of all, the $50 million plant would bring construction jobs, then there would be 50 permanent jobs, and that may not sound like a lot, but in a town of only about 1,030 people, it would be the largest employer in the city. it would bring in about a million dollars a year in tax revenue, they might be able to reopen the high school which had to close because of lack of a tax base. the town s elected leaders say there is plenty of water, it rains about 80inchs and a year, and that resource can help lift the entire city. it is the public s water, and the money that will be made will help the public, will help our community. reporter: and unemployment in cascade locks, jane? 18 president, twice the 18%, twice the state average. obviously, the people there want the jobs. jane: let us know what happens. dan springer, thanks. fox news has been on the job hunt for nearly six months now
