I hope you're right. If you are then I'm sure that the Senate Leadership will ignore my letters and the many others that they will no doubt receive. But I seriously doubt if the report has been blown too far out of proportion. Specter has shown his liberal pedigree on more than one occassion. I don't think that it would be wise to keep him in such a powerful position.
He is not right, you are. I could dismiss today's news, and still find more than enough to know how dumb it is to have Specter as Chairman of the Judiciary Committee. Specter is an outspoken supported of Roe v. Wade and has the exact same litmus test that Kerry has. If there is any question that the balance of the court is threatened, Specter or Kerry will fight tooth and nail to defeat conservative judges. Specter has admitted this before.
