[Fester Chugabrew]

I can understand the frustrations with this RINO in a GIRAFFES body, but he made points as he addressed the Clarence Thomas/Anita Hill fiasco. He voted to approve Clarence Thomas.

[GEC]

Specter only voted for Thomas because he was facing reelection the following year and his pollsters told him that if he didn't, he would lose the election.

Even so, he had Theresa Heinz (later Kerry) run ads for him, invoking her deceased husband. She endorsed him, but criticized him for his treatment of Anita Hill.

I STILL regret not having voted for Yeakel in that election just to get rid of Specter.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

He voted to approve Clarence Thomas.

His ass was on the line next year too, and he barely won that election, beating the woman Democrat candidate by only 49 to 46 percent.

Spectator ALWAYS votes conservative in the last year of his Senate term.
