First he single-handedly cost Toomey the race, and now this!
If this report is correct, Rick Santorum has a LOT of explaining to do...
Although a staunch foe of abortion and same-sex marriage, Santorum helped Specter win re-election this year and according to Specter, has been rounding up support for him as Judiciary chairman.
"Sen. Santorum has been enormously helpful," said Specter Tuesday. "He's gone above and beyond the call of duty. My number one priority in the next two years is to reelect Sen. Santorum."
For conservative voters who may dominate in the 2008 GOP primaries, one doubts that this would really be an appealing campaign slogan: "Rick Santorum: The man who brought you Arlen Specter."
People on here are so clueless when it comes to politics, it's really frightning.
You can do nothing but laugh at them.
What "arrogant statements" has he made to the press recently?
I honestly don't believe that the man who fought for Clarence Thomas is really going to make himself that much of an obstacle in a Republican dominated Senate.
Especially after he's been put on notice ahead of time.
The question isn't whether Specter has learned his lesson. He hasn't. Rather, ask yourself why such an important committee assignment should go to such a sleazy individual.
Excellent point. Perhaps something will derail Specter's chairmanship between now and the time the Senators vote for chairman.
