WASHINGTON – Several officials say veteran Republican Sen. Arlen Specter
of Pennsylvania intends to switch parties, advancing his own hopes of
winning a new term next year while pushing Democrats one step closer to
a 60-vote filibuster-resistant majority.


good move for him as many of us moderate democrats have been voting
for him for years. glad to see he recognized the reality.

and it looks like the GOP in PA may be dying, or at least becoming a
party of angry white conservative males...http://
tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/04/why-specter-did-it----and-had-to-
do-it.php

doesn't bode well for the GOP in PA



It's sorta fun to watch the current iteration of GOP head over Niagara
Falls sans barrel.

Maybe the GOP will be born again, but without the Crazy Christians and
the neocons.

The barrel is being provided courtesy Boner, Cantor, McConnell,
Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck.

They've marginalized the party to the point of being small enough to,
as Grover Norquist once pined, "drown in a bathtub."

In soccer this is referred to as an own goal.

Of course like most of your ilk, you can not deal with facts.. Half of
the country is still Republican, the margine by which Obama won can be
easily attibuted to the criminal activity and vote buying of ACORN and
the DNC.... Anyway, back to your stories, sometimes they are even
amusing...

Yeah, me and 50% of the rest of the country.. Don't forget that Obama
only won by a point or two, and that could well have been the 8 years
of voter fraud perpetrated by ACORN and the DNC... To completely
dismiss half of the country is just un-American.

Obama won by six or seven points, **** for brains, and considering the
atmosphere of this country, that was a landslide. Go count up the
differences in electoral college votes.

Oh...and those who describe themselves as Republicans now? Down to 21%.

Idiot.


Well if I am **** for brains, you are dick in the mouth.. Nobody
belives anything you say but go on now, keep dreaming... I think you
actually impressed Slammer today... That's a start snerk

Not bad really dick inthe mouth. Even if one were to believe the 6-7
points, that's not any landslide and not bad with only 21%
Republicans.. You can't have it both ways, even if your answers
contradict themselves from one half of a sentence to another..
