He was used by the worst Senate Majority Leader the nation has ever experienced. A man with his experience of conniving does not get used, unless he wants to be. A man spending his career with sewer rats shouldn't complain about rat bites.

It appears the Senator never heard the phrase “love ‘em and leave ‘em.”
“Really, Arlen, we promise we’ll respect you in the morning.”

Specter reaped what he sowed.
Sorry about your luck Arlen. /s

Specter bragging about voting for Obamacare.....which will destroy the best medical care in the world, and bitching because he didn’t get paid off.....amazing. When you put it like that, sounds like he's always been a democrat...
Then again, didn't he help get some Republican SC judges in?
