Fox News confirms that President Obama will campaign for Pennsylvania Senate candidate Congressman Joe Sestak (D-PA) on September 20th. The second-term congressman will face former Congressman Pat Toomey on November 2nd in the general election.

The president had previously supported Sestak's primary opponent Republican-turned-Democrat Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA) who Sestak defeated in the May primary. Just last week, former Nebraska Republican Senator Chuck Hagel endorsed Sestak. In early August, former President Bill Clinton campaigned on Sestak's behalf, though the candidate was in Washington for a scheduled vote and did not attend the rally.

Sestak spokesman Jonathan Dworkin tells Fox in a statement that, "We're honored that the president would do an event with Joe during his trip to Pennsylvania. He and Joe may have had their differences, but they can agree that it is critical to elect a Senator who will put Pennsylvania's working families first
Maybe Sestak should talk to them first...
