The Dems are getting taken to school.
There are fools. Making an enemy of Specter was damn stupid. Rolling Lugar? Sure, Lugar is spineless and doesn't know how to control his committee. But pushing Specter too far where he perceives the control he has patiently awaited Decades for is under seige? Stupid is, as stupid does Dems.
Specter was going to vote for Alito. he likes Alito, despite any differences they might hold. That relationship goes back a few years. But the hardline he's taking is in direct response to Kennedy.
I agree. I think he was really angry about Senator Kennedy's grandstanding and really hurt that Kennedy never said anything directly to him.
I think so to. That erruption between Specter and Kennedy was a site to behold. I am happy that is the one day this week that I watched the coverage all day.
