"Specter did not need to clarify his remarks."

He better do some "clarifying" for what he said to the Philly paper and the P'burgh P-G. He has been threatening, maybe only blustering to get what he wants. (Wanted and got the endorsements of those two left wing rags by saying Bush's extremist nominees would not get by him.) Now he wants everybody to look the other way and let him have that chairmanship so he can screw things up good.

I'm not a friend or defender of Arlen Specter, as I thought I made clear. But I would like you to produce for me what it is that he said. Seriously. This is Old Media trying to cause Republican infighting.

And as for my other remarks, I reaffirm: Specter is NOT Lincoln Chafee, period.
