Default Arlen Specter to switch political parties

You are incredibly naive. Specter is being welcomed with open arms by
the highest ranking leaders of the Democratic Party. He is being given
seniority based upon his entree date to the U.S. Senate. Every major
Democrat will raise money for him and campaign on his behalf.. The
only way he will not be the Democratic nominee in 2010 is if his
cancer or death keeps him out of it. He is 79, after all.



That's the "official" party line.

The reality is that many politicians, both Republicans and Democrats
think he is a weasel.
Not my opinion. Watch any of the interviews conducted right after his
announcement.
He's taking care of him and his position and used this opportunity to
negotiate himself a nice, secure position, seniority and guarantied
re-election.

The Swine Flew.
