Just remember ARLEEN! There is something called a recall election.
Unfortunately, Specter probably realizes he is a lame duck (highly unlikely to be in any condition to run again in 6 years) and, therefore has nothing to lose by being as obnoxious as he wants to be. I used to be what is called a "broken glass Republican". Now, I call myself a broken glass conservative. I wrote in Toomey's name and would have crawled over broken glass to vote AGAINST Specter. Hopefully, Santorum has learned a lesson and will convey his mea culpa to his constituency. Otherwise. . . bring on the broken glass!
