“Talk in Harrisburg is that Specter will change his party affiliation to Democrat if he can’t persuade state lawmakers to approve an open primary.”

How would that be a change?

My stand on the situation is that the Republican Party should initiate the change for him by telling him they don’t want him.

Not holding my breath, but that sort of action by the Republican Party would show they finally mean what is printed on those form letters requesting contributions.

The Republican party needs to fight him on the primary issue. They need to keep those primaries closed.

In fact, the Republicans need to do that in every open primary state - push for closed primaries to stop ACORN from pushing the Cross over voting.

This is what gave us McCain and eventually Barack Hussein Obama.
