Steeles Official Statement
STATEMENT FROM CHAIRMAN STEELE ON SENATOR ARLEN SPECTER’S DECISION TO SWITCH TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
WASHINGTON - Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele released the following statement today:
“Some in the Republican Party are happy about this. I am not.
Let’s be honest-Senator Specter didn’t leave the GOP based on principles of any kind. He left to further his personal political interests because he knew that he was going to lose a Republican primary due to his left-wing voting record.
Republicans look forward to beating Sen. Specter in 2010, assuming the Democrats don’t do it first.”

Specter has never been a Republican. Ditto Snowe, Chaffee, the whole lot of them. These interlopers dilute the strength of the party and destroy its brand. The sooner they declare what they really are, the better.
