If I lived in PA, I would do my best to make sure this pitiful excuse for a senator didn’t get re-elected.

Specter will win because PA Dems will cross over and vote for him in the GOP primary.
The only way to get Specter out is to run someone big like TOoomey on an independent or Constitution ticket and let the Dem win. And yes, I'd rather have the Dem win then Specter.

Same state that just re-elected “Jumpin Jack Murtha” the traitor. Riiiiiight! Going to punish Arlen by making him nervous after they dumped Santorum. Sure you are!

How many time has this happened in the past? AND WE STILL HAVE SPECTER.
