He did it to get the FlyBY felony off the the news cycle... It is a distraction.... We need to muster and hold Obama admin responsible for terrorizing Americans... Obama knew what was going on.... if anybody thinks different they don’t understand Obama....

His constituents should be raising hell over this. He was elected as a Republican. If they wanted a Dem, they would have voted in a Dem.

Dear Arlen,

You no longer deserve the title Honorable or Senator when being addressed. Your move to the Democratic Party is a slap in the face to all Pennsylvanians that have voted for you as a Republican their entire adult lives. I have voted for you in 3 general elections. The only 3 I have been eligible to vote to vote for you and am beyond livid with today’s move.

You’re a disgrace as a United States Senator and have been since you voted “Not proven.” during President Clinton’s impeachment trial. Yet despite your egregious flaws I have continued to support you at the ballot box because Pennsylvania was faced with far worse alternatives. You’ve abdicated the wishes of your constituents for the better part of a generation on numerous key issues and now when faced with removal from federal office through the primary process you turn tail and run.

You are a coward and a liar Mr. Specter.

Sincerely,

>>Specter’s statement: “Not defined” by party<<

I agree with him. I’m not tied forever to the Republican party - but they come closest to representing conservative values.

Don't forget his positioning on FISA and the "DOMESTIC" surveillance fiasco. RINO through and through - he will be welcomed in the RAT party.

At least we don’t have to worry about him anymore taking up the space of a republican.

have to give him this much credit, he finally showed what he really is. Will Obama now run under the socialist party when he runs again in 2012 and show his true party alignment?

“I am unwilling to have my twenty-nine year Senate record judged by the Pennsylvania Republican primary electorate”

Arlen, you arrogant bastard — it is that same primary electorate that got you where you are. I so hope you lose in the dem primary. That’ll show your sorry, wrinkled old a$$.

“the ever increasing size of the population that not only is ok with SOCIALISM, but actually feel America is evil, Capitalism is evil, and we should be a SOCIALIST nation.”

You are absolutely right. This is the direct result of the dumbed-down, indoctrinated electorate. Each day, on my commute to work, when I see a loaded school bus, I think to myself how those young minds are being soiled by the DNC-NEA network of propagandists who preach the very “ideas” you mentioned. It’s tragic.

He cited it several times. So this was a cowardly move to retain power. He indeed knew he was toast apparently it became clear at some point after his traitorous vote on the stimpuke.

we need to target some of the more conservative Dems in red areas along with getting rid of McCain

I'm all for that, although as nice as it would be to see Simcox take out McPOS, I'm afraid we'll be stuck with Mr Maverick until he finally takes the permanent dirt nap.
