President Bush turned a fund-raising visit to Pittsburgh Tuesday into a defacto campaign stop for Sen. Arlen Specter, praising the liberal-leaning Republican after a trip on Air Force One.

"I want to thank Arlen Specter, who is the state campaign co-chairman for Bush-Cheney '04," Mr. Bush said to a room full of well-heeled supporters. "I look forward to working with him as the chairman of the Judiciary Committee in the United States Senate to make sure my judges get through and appointed."

This has less to do with centrism, I think, and more to do with Specter just being an establishment guy.

Listened to Sphicter's ad today. He really doesn't get it. He derides Toomey for voting against the drug plan (Medicare bloating), yet the reason Toomey is running against the Scottish Judge is to reduce spending, government and pork. Toomey should thank him for the endorsement and widespread free ad.
