Weird Fact about PA Politicos...

[PCIntern]

What do all thes PA Politicians, past and present, have in common?

Shapp, Milton
Santorum, Ricky
Scott, Hugh
Schweiker, Richard
Specter, Arlen
Scranton, William
Street, John

It's really weird. There are a lot of letters in the alphabet, but "S" seems to be the most important one here in the Keystone State.

Plus which (sic) Shapp and Scott both disappeared from public view and upon their deaths it was revealed that they had Alzheimer's Disease. They haven't made that diagnosis in other cases, however. Not YET at least...

1. actually the disease coincidence is the tragic one

that killed Casey and a politican from Pittsburg and one from Erie. All three died of a rare disease.

3. You're right - I'd forgotten

about that...I believe it was amyloidosis.

5. It really is a freaky thing

No relationship between the three except being prominent Democratic Pennsylvania politicians.

6. Were 2 of those Italo Cappobianco & Richard Caliguiri?

7. I am not sure to be honest, it was so long ago

It could well have been.

2. It's too bad that Frank Rizzo and "Willy" B. Goode did not make

the list...As a Keystone resident, I was most proud of them:sarcasm:

4. I actually have interesting stories about both

of them...Rizzo died in the building right across the street form my office. You have never seen so many cops in your life...

But that's not the story...
