Thats how I see it. But the fact is he just demonstrated how wrong Bush and Santorum were in 2004.

I lived in PA and met Specter at a Republican rally in DC. He was very arrogant and ignored my son, who is blind and was studying for his Master's Degree and asked Spector a question. Specter could tell he was blind, so as my son spoke, Specter was looking all around and waving to other people and never answered my son. From that time on I have never liked the man. It is obvious he is only interested in himself and his ego is tremendous.

He said that he worked to represent the people of PA and not a party. If that is so, then it should not matter which party he belongs to. In essence, that statement contradicts what he has done. Actually, what is more the truth is that he knows he would not win re-election, which he has admitted, and he feels he would still "have a job" if he became a Democrat. That is all this is about. Not the people. Not being right or left. For Specter, it is about the position that pays him a salary that he wants.

Although I am glad we are rid of him, he has picked the worst time to do this. And what happens to all the money he has taken from people for his campaign as a Republican candidate? I sure hope they get that back.
