Specter was at it again on ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, declining to comment on whether or not he as Senate Judiciary Chairman would support elevating Clarence Thomas to Chief Justice.
Specter was on the program with Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who last year suggested that Arlen Specter should be nominated to the Supreme Court!

Well .. keep in mind that Specter has just met with Frist - and Frist has made it public that Specter is being watched. I'm hoping Frist has told Specter to SHUT THE HELL UP.
Specter CANNOT be shut up.What the HELL is he doing talking to that little troll on ABC when he is under fire in his own party??
With the current extreme polarity between the partys, I know that the fact that Schumer is for him, means he is NOT the right(so to speak) person for the job.
I am in the frame of mind right now, so soon after the election, and all of the antics of the MSM, to be against anything or anyone that the dems and MSM are for.
We think we have seen obstructin and nastiness in the senate. Well, I think when it comes to judicial nominees, even some of the "lesser" ones than Supreme Court, the level of nastiness and obstruction will go up exponentially.
I'm not. Better to see how politicians will vote before electing them. As for Specter - let him dig his own grave.
Contacts on Monday morning, tomorrow, to the GOP Committee members, including the Leader's office, are critical!
King Arlen must BE STOPPED from ascending to the SJC Chair...
Specter for Senate Chairman...of Indian Affairs!
Actually Specter is also a troll--trolling for pro-abortion support, non-verbally saying, "see what my showing my true colors has done for us abortionists--help me or else!"
I agree. Put the clown on air 24 hours a day...
Agreed. He has been treading water in quicksand. Let him keep it up.
Anywhere he can't do further damage to America is fine with me...
The Democrats have a litmus test for their candidates. A serious Democrat must be a pro-abort and pro-homosexuality. Those who aren’t need not apply. To some extent, this litmus test has made them the minority party they are today.
I would love to see the GOP be an intellectually pure conservative party, with everyone being along the lines of Alan Keyes and Pat Buchanan, but the fact is that Specter isn’t the only liberal in the GOP.
If we want to push Specter out the door, we need to do the same with Arnold, Rudy, Powell, Ridge, Whitman, Gonzales, Chaffee, Collins, Snowe, Pataki, etc. And if we push these people out of the tent, we will go back to being the minority party. I’d like nothing better than if we had rock-rib conservatives holding 75 Senate seats, 350 House seats, 44 governorships, etc., that just isn’t the case. Part of the price of being the majority party is being big enough to accept those people who don’t fit some of our core beliefs, but who nonetheless would rather be with us than with “them.”
Would we rather be what we are right now, a majority party with the likes of Specter, etc., or an ideologically pure party which is a permanent minority party?
If the GOP betrays America and does not deliver, there will be hell to pay. You can take that to the 'bank'...
I disagree, but even if I did YOU DON'T PUT THEM IN CHARGE OF SUCH A COMMITTEE !!!!
Do you favor asking the people I listed to leave the party?
Spector is too controversial and might plunge the knife again.
