Turns out Arlen Specter and Joe Sestak weren’t the only Senate candidates in Pennsylvania who spoke to ideological bloggers Friday in Pittsburgh.

Pat Toomey, the Republican former representative who is likely to face the winner of the Specter-Sestak Democratic primary, did the same.

Except Toomey’s audience on Friday night was a group of conservative bloggers who convened in the Steel City for the second annual RightOnline conference, sponsored by the Americans for Prosperity Foundation.
