I wouldn't otherwise say anything about this as I was confident that Casey could kinda' keep quiet and let Santorum blather himself into oblivion. However, the polls show that he has narrowed his deficit two thirds of the way (to 6%) since june.
(From CNN.com)
The poll says that Casey leads Santorum 48 percent to 42 percent among likely voters, with Green Party candidate Carl Romanelli collecting 5 percent and the remaining 5 percent of voters undecided. In a head-to-head match-up, Casey has a 47 percent to 40 percent advantage over Santorum, while a June 21 poll by the university had Casey leading Santorum 52 percent to 34 percent.
Consider this: Mehlman's ilk is fighting to
disenfranchise millions of voters nationwide. He knows (just as in 2000, 2002, and 2004,) that the only way to "win the game" is to cheat. It's the same for the GOP now as it was then as it shall remain tomorrow and the next day until principled conservative citizens realize that they must recapture control of their party for the sake of their future.
This is what "adapting to win" is all about.
... Just a heads up. While I am not a 100%'er for Casey, the man has my vote. I am hopeful and strongly suggest that he to collect his people and start hitting the pavement. I can dig why he hasn't thus far. After all, Santorum is a total disaster; however, the game being the game and all. . .

There is an earlier and more detailed diary about this here.
