this video is inaccurate. Specter was a Democrat when he ran for Senate in 1980. He has stated that he wanted to "moderate the Republican party." He did not change his party affiliation officially until AFTER he was elected to the GOP. Check you facts Media Matters before you lie. He was a democrat in republican clothes...barely.
Arlen Specter should have been booted out of the GOP back when he gave his nonsensical verdict of "not proven" during Bill Clinton's 1998 impeachment trial.
This is a common feature of the Republican party over the last 10 years. By coddling the Religious Right and Gun-Toting nuts, they are alienating the more socially evolved (I mean intelligently designed) portions of society.
MdeiaMatters.. now there's a joke! And this is NOT breaking news you bonehead.
Specter has voted with the far left liberal terrorists every time and can also add to his list of accolades 12 trillion dollars of debt and growing as the dems want. No wonder the dems are happy about this, they need another voice to bring the USA to Nazi Germany times that had full control over it's people!
Might want to check your history of Nazi Germany and Hitler on how he came into power. The politics are incredibly similar and the results will be the same.
Even with obama's recent magical mystery tour in other countries slamming the USA, complacency will soon be common place. It's just a tiny portion of people like you that will always support such political slavery.
Welcome to the holocaust but this time more than just the Jewish People will die...
Its okay... I'd like Arlen Specter to explain how the GOP has shifted to the right. If anything its shifted left. Bush spent like a flaming liberal... and now Specter can be part of an administration that will demand even more control...

Specter slips across the aisle to become a DINO instead of a RINO. Can we trade Lieberman, too?

Nothing like another intelligent liberal it looks like. Personal attacks without any debate... yeah, typical for sure.

Debate what?
Ad hominem Nazi smears?
OK, you're wrong:
Obama isn't a Nazi. End of debate.

Vander... too true! In fact, the dems have gotten more control due to the reps in the middle acting like dems.
Voting these days isn't about selecting the best person for the position... it's picking who you don't want the most.
