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://

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...
