My thought exactly. It’s unbelievable that he’s supporting Snarlen again.

Isn’t the Pennsylvania GOP Primary a closed one?

I don’t think this is compliance with Scottish law.

“He should just switch to the Democrat party (he acts like one so why not join them).”

What you should know about this jerk is that early on in his career, he WAS a democrat. He only switched to the Republican Party as it was the only way he could win a certain election(don’t remember what it was for, DA or something). So,,, He’s always been a democrat, and a Republican In Name Only. The worst kind of RINO! He is not, and never has been, a Republican!

Well...with that prayer the republicans should take note and make sure they dump him for a real conservative to represent them.

Spectre is a two faced Democrat registered as a Republican.

He reminds me of John McCain.

Yes, it is closed. You can change your party prior to the primary, I believe it is 30 or 45 days prior. Fast Eddie Rendell used this tactic to get the Dem nomination for GOV. It was also used for Operation Chaos.

Well at his age and with his health problems, Specter needs to consider that the Grim Reaper might be casting a vote, and HIS vote crosses party lines EVERY time.

Call me cruel, but I wouldn’t shed one damn tear.

I’m not saying it’s right. I’m not saying it’s wrong. It’s simply their policy.

Might be it's time to change their policy.

Just waiting for the required, unilateral quid pro quo for the merest hint of a suggestion of this to the LibTards. BOHICA.

What Mr. Spectre needs to do is to change to the Democrat party he so desperately seeks help from.

Sorry, but we need to kiss spectre's ass. With Franken winning MN, the dems have 59 votes. They only need 60 to be complete dictators just like the Nazis.

With 60, they can pass anything they want.

Like it or not, Spectre is the only thing stopping the US from becoming a communist dictatorship.

The Repubublican Senate is not worth keeping. For that matter, the Senate is old, lame, flatulent, and suffers from fits of megalomania. Rather like the Roman senate before Caesar.

This is not all that bad for stopping a filibuster. The dems need 60 votes for cloture, the republicans do not need 41. An empty seat is the best result for republicans.

To save the USA from going communist, we need spectre.

To paraphrase the old saying "pay me now or pay me later" It comes down to kissing spectre butt or kneeling at Obama's feet.

You still think Congress isn’t kneeling at Obama’s feet? How cute.

So, when does he vote with us when it matters? I say he’s an old fool who needs to be replaced with a conservative. A true conservative, not a Liberal-Progressive light. Give the people of Pa a choice.
