Comments on: Specter: ‘I Did Not Say I Am A Loyal Democrat’ http://thinkprogress.org/2009/05/03/specter-loyal-democrat/ Thu, 26 Nov 2009 23:20:09 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Griesheim http://thinkprogress.org/2009/05/03/specter-loyal-democrat/comment-page-6/#comment-5633395 Griesheim Thu, 07 May 2009 20:42:27 +0000 http://thinkprogress.org/?p=38049#comment-5633395 A major conflict is undoubtedly brewing between President Obama and the egomaniacal, tempestuous Congressman Joe Sestak. Obama has welcomed Specter into the Democratic Party, and has clearly indicated that he will support Specter's re-election quest. But Sestak has shown utter disdain for both the Democratic Party and the White House. He attaches more importance to the satisafction of his ambitions than to the well-being of the Democratic Party. Sestak has made a grave mistake. He will surely feel the White House's wrath...soon.

Seems to me that good ole Sen. Arlen Specter has a plan. Seeing as how he figures he will lose as a Republican, he decides to be a Democrat, where he figures people tired of the "Party Of No" will pick a Democrat. Now if this was to work out ole Arlen's way, I would bet a pretty penny that has soon as he won the election, he would change his spots again and switch back over to the Republican side.

He is a spineless man with no convictions. I'm glad he's gone from the Republican party. Now, McCain please follow...

After watching this man as a Republican shift and turn etc I certainly don't. Even when he spoke saying this or that should be done, he still ended up voting the party line. His switch is one of expediency. It always is. And at his advanced age, it is all he knows. He has always said the thing to get along and go along. He is a Joe Lieberman. He is a Dianne Feinstein. He wears the wrong coat. This man is a walking corpse. His real party is a group of the walking dead. They deserve each other. Too bad we are now stuck with this clown. Don’t worry Arlen.

Specter's legacy will foolishly be protected by the sometimes not so bright democratic party. For this I am very angry with Obama and the democrats! They should financially back ANY real democratic candidate 100% in the Pennsylvania primary in 2010 for the senate, not some 79 year old bucket of puss who only cares about continuing his run as a US senator.

Specter is 80 years old moron, I mean really are you really that dumb to think would "evolve" on issues? When did you last meet an 80 year old white guy that was evolving?
