Former Sen. Arlen Specter (Pa.) writes in a new book that President Obama ditched him in the 2010 election after he helped Obama win the biggest legislative victory of his term by passing healthcare reform.
Specter also claims that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) did not uphold his promise to grant him seniority accrued over 28 years of service in the Senate as a Republican.
Specter, who rocked Washington’s political establishment and made headlines around the country when he left the Republican Party to join Democrats in April of 2009, has kept quiet about these slights until now.
He makes surprising revelations about Republican leaders, as well — he writes that former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole (R-Kan.) told him that he would have made the same decision to defect from the GOP if he had been in Specter’s position.
Specter says that one of Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell’s (Ky.) first concerns after learning of the impending party switch was that he might be blamed for driving Specter out of the GOP.

Would have been funnier showing him with a pooper-scooper...a job that he is really qualified for. WADDA PUTZ!!
There’s no honor among thieves. Specter was a pox on the Republicans and he ended his career as a pox on the Democrats.
Spector now knows how Larry Sinclair felt.
Let me shed a tear for this old POS sumbilch.
My heart bleeds for this turd who is crying for getting double crossed after he double crossed us.
Fluke him.
...and in Specter's case, the dogs get up and run away...can't stand the smell of a "Benedict Arnold".
Spectois a blowhard. He sold out and paid the price. Tough.
How many times did he screw us when he was the head of the Judicary? Always holding out for the highest bidder.
Anyone interested in this genius’ claim to fame. He made up the single bullet theory in the Kennedy assasination. He was a low rent plumber all the way back to 1963? Even the Phila crowd saw he was an idiot and took him out.
Yeah, well taht’s how it is with you leftists, Arlen. When you lay down with dogs, you shouldn’t be surprised to wake up with fleas!
Hey Senator Sphincter,
Don’t forget to collect your 30 pieces of silver on your way out.
Used, Abused, and Screwed by the an Obama Democrats
Ha!!!, Ha ,Ha ,!!
stupid is as stupid does.... socialist is as socialist does.... santorum backed this pos.... therefore, socialist is as socialist does...period, end of discussion
M'Buggaboo told me you welched on the deal so I could get the $10,000,000. Do you think he lied to us?
“Rides in the wahhhmbulance aren’t covered under Obamacare.”
I don’t know about that. Isn’t that the essence of Fluke’s message. I whine, you pay.
Be sure to include the author of RomneyCare.
Geez, Arlen...you mean Baraq didn’t respect you in the morning?
The question is, Arlen, would you have voted differently had you known that Zer0 would ditch you afterward.
Poor Specter, idiot. Does he even know Democrat history?
Senate audio transcript...
’ Obama: “Here’s the cigarettes”
Reid: “OK... Arlen!”
Specter: “Yes sir.”
Reid: “You go with Obama [deleted].” ‘
He sold our freedom for a leadership position, which he didn’t get. Nice!
Arlen, it’s called JUST DESERTS! Now just continue to eat them and leave the good folks along. Did you really think Obama was going to “respect you in the morning”?
