Three words; CLUB FOR GROWTH
Whackjob Incorporated, the wingnut, ideological extremist,
institutional manifestation of the personality disorder that has
poisoned the Republican Party, has used its affiliate, the CLUB FOR
GROWTH, to destroy MODERATE REPUBLICANS in race after race across the
country for the last 8 plus years. Their tactic is to run incredibly
financed, radical extremists against moderate Republican incumbents,
in Republican primaries. If they kill the moderate Repub in the
primary, these radicals go on into the general and LOSE. If the
moderate fends off the Club for Growth sponsored radicals, the
moderate had typically used up much of their money, making winning the
seat harder in the general election. In this way the CLUB for Growth
has purged moderates from the Republican Party. Its a classic
political tactic of extremist, fanatical ideologues. The Fascists, the
National Socialists, and the Bolsheviks did the same thing.

Specter was tired of being harassed by the nutcases that have captured
his Republican Party and made it unsafe and unwelcome for anyone
interested in saying anything but "NO" or anyone interested in
responsive government, and anyone not a Rushparrot or drooling FOX
licker.
