OT GOP scolding from a former true believer

Take Arlen Specter for instance, a thoughtful, diligent, capable
Senator from Pennsylvania. Specter faces a primary challenge he
may very well lose in 2010 even though he would be reelected easily
were he the GOP nominee.

there is debate in Democratic Party meetings over whether to support Specter
in the primary(as he IS a good representative of the State, and has lots of
clout), which could easily get him past any challenge(think a million union
members temporarily changing party affiliation next March....), or letting
him get beat and hammering the bejeezus out of the right-wing loon that
beats him. Downside to the latter is having two fairly low tenured Senators,
not conducive to helping the State in the long run.
