Exactly. Specter's support of Bush nominees takes the fever out of MSM reaction -- it is very useful.
We are now the majority party, a big tent. Let's act that way and stop this internal bickering.
Specter will get the job done for Bush. In fact, I bet we'll see prompt action on stalled circuit court nominees.
All that being said, it isn't such a bad thing to have a bunch of angry conservatives and Freepers making a big stink about it, either. It just adds to the illusion!
