If Specter loses the primary, hopefully he'll pull a Lieberman and win as an Independent (Pennsylvania for Specter Smiley)


In such a scenario it would most likely result in a Democrat victory.  But the good news is would no longer would have Specter's RINO ass around to vote with the DEMs.

Yes, instead of a moderate Republican, you'll have a Democrat, which will no doubt be much more palatable to you.

After all, a Republican who's with you 75% of the time is no where near as useful as a Democrat who's with you 10% of the time.

Good luck with all that.

As Harry Reid said recently: "The Republicans in the Senate are not moderates, with the one exception of Olympia Snowe are not moderates, they're right wing. And that includes some people who in the past have been moderates, someone you'd think like Arlen Specter. I talk about Arlen Specter in my book briefly and say that he's with us when we don't need him. Which is true, he never votes with us on an important vote. The only one who does is Olympia Snowe."

Harry Reid is about as unbiased an opinion on that as our Harry.

Specter DOES vote with Republicans on all the important issues. I don't consider him a moderate.

Finally, an unbiased voice!

ARLEN SPECTER IS A KKKONSERVATIVE.
