At a rally Sunday night, United Mine Workers of America President Cecil Roberts came out hard for Lamb, calling him "a God-fearing, union-supporting, gun-owning, job-protecting, pension-defending, Social Security-believing, health care-creating and sending-drug-dealers-to-jail Democrat."

Fun thing, a close family friend went to high school with Lamb- Central Catholic, where all the good Catholic families send their boys in Pittsburgh. I definitely want to ask him what Lamb was like next time we cross paths!
