I think you and Josh are on to something -- Santorum will not sell conservatives out. You can bet he has extracted a pretty hefty price from Specter in order to become Chairman. I know Inhofe stated that if Specter crosses the line, the votes are there to oust him, and he will lead the charge.
Bet the Bush nominees sail through the Senate with everyone watching Specter -- he either gets on board with the Bush agenda or gets out of the way. Believe he decided that getting with the agenda was a better option.
Like Josh, I don't like Specter either.
Santorum not sell out conservatives?
Pat Toomey anyone?
That man lost to Specter BECAUSE of Santorum!
Exactly.. Santorum and Bush are not mindless saps who go,
"Gee, let's take his word."
I am not concerned about this issue at all. It's not worth getting upset about. Thank god the adults are in control.
