No, but he held them up and delayed them in the hope that some pubbies would vote against them if any dirt was uncovered (or made up).
Specter is only with us when we don't need him.
Prove it.

If having a GOP Senate majority is important, and it's EXTREMELY important, then we need Specter. Like I said, he's part of the reason there's 10 GOPers for every 8 DEMs on Senate committees. Same goes for Lincoln Chaffee, Susan Collins, and all the other RINOs. Actually, the miracle to me is that they're IN the GOP. They don't hurt us by being liberal Republicans. They help us immensely by not being Democrats. Remember Jumpin' Jim Jeffords? Imagine all the RINOs jumped. We're MUCH better off with RINOs than we would be with DEMs. It's not even arguable.
