I just heard Ann Compton's report on ABC News. She said Specter says he was summoned to the White House tonight regarding the judicial nominee. She speculated, but did not confirm, that a nominee has been selected.

Specter says he was summoned to the White House tonight

Thanks for the clarification. Bush was going to a major social event tonight, so it must have been a late meeting. Sort of unusual for Mr. "in bed by nine".
