The head of the Republican party is bound to support incumbents, no matter what losers they are, unless they have done something obviously disloyal to Republicans.
I think Specter's record is evidence enough of his disloyalty to the GOP.

His disloyalty NOW makes him suspect. However, he was quite conciliatory during the 2004 elections.

I think Specter's record is evidence enough of his disloyalty to the GOP. You're right, of course. But John Robinson posted earlier his reasons for believing that Toomey didn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning the general elections. I have no position on that; I'm not in PA, and there were PA Freepers on both sides at the time. (The loss of one seat -- giving R's 54 -- wouldn't have been decisive, but I think there were other close elections and no guarantee that it would be only one.)
