Arlen Specter Eats Crow
Arlen "Formerly the 60th Vote for Senate Democrats" Specter released the following statement in regard to the Massachusetts special election results:"The Massachusetts election shows Washington must change its ways. Now that there 59 Democrats in the Senate, it will be indispensable for at least some bipartisanship to deal with the serious problems confronting America: creating jobs; reducing the deficit; reining in Wall Street; and stopping abusive insurance company practices like denying coverage on technicalities."
Arlen Specter the reformer?
This guy is schizophrenic.
What does Arlen Specter have going for him? He's abandoned the Republican Party and has not convinced a single Democrat that he's really one of them. What's he going to do to win the Democratic primary in May? Have Barack Obama campaign for him? We all know how well that went for the Democratic candidates in Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts.
Don't be surprised if Specter decides to retire in the coming months rather than face a humiliating defeat at the hands of Pennsylvania voters.

Looks like you wrote this about a half hour too soon!
Rasmussen: Specter 53%, Sestak 32%
Martha Coakley was 30 points ahead of Scott Brown in the polls in the 30 days leading up to the Jan. 19 special election. Look what happened! Plenty of time for Specter to fade away.
Arlen doesn't even know how many Democrats are in the senate. There are 57, not 59. Leiberman and Sanders are Independents who caucus with the Dems. Wake up and take your meds, Arlen...
