This has to be the end of his career.

Absolutely NOT!

The end of his career began when he switched parties.

The old fox is facing his constituents now and just said "I won't vote for a Bill that has health care for Illegals, etc.".

He's going to vote AGAINST this Bill and will be reelected because of it.

Specter looks awful ... time to take the “blue pill?”

Of course. Because he knows that the illegals will all be legalized within the next year. Don't let his word parsing fool you.

He can't. He's trapped. The Dems have him by the short and bushy. He could have safely voted against it if he'd remained a Republican. But the RATs won't allow any show of rebellion. If he wavers they can cut off his re-election funding, run another candidate in his place, whatever. He's a turncoat. His only choice would be to run again as an independent. He HAS to remain in lockstep with OHHHH BABY or he's toast.
