Why do you republicans want to live in the past? Senator Specter has seen the light and path the republicans have taken. He chose to leave the party because of people like Limbaugh, Palin, Rove, Cheney, and Levin. Those people call themselves true conservatives. What is a true conservative? Just listen to Mark Levin and you can hear he truly wants to live in the past. We are in a new world and we need to move forward not backward. Let the past be the past and let us move forward, keeping an eye on the past so we do not repeat the same mistakes again. America needs a new beginning.
Thank you Senator Specter for seeing the light.

Well Joe Lieberaman the Veep for the Democrats in 2000 left that Party, although I don't recall all the news like we are seeing with Specter.Joe also endorsed the Republican candidate for prez in 2008 Well one thing is for sure the Democrats own this economy and now they will own the doubling of the US debt from $10 Trillion to $20 Trillion ++ thanks to Obama's "jacked up" Federal spending that has no "cash receipts" to pay for.Anyone in Ameica can do what Obama is doing if WE over spent by $ 10 Trillion dollars for the next ten years Sad and the under 30 voters who put Obama in the White House will be the ones who are saddled with that debt for the rest of their "poor" lifes And our corrupt left-wing press continues to censor these facts and warnings just like they censored the "tea parties"

So who the hell are you? Nostradamus? Did you come back from the future to warn what you saw?
Right-wing Radical extremists have been "predicting" and accusing lots of things now and not one of them has come true yet and were never true.

I watched your Stupid T.E.A. party (which stands for "Terrible in Every Angle") from FOX news (yes, because I have EARS LEFT AND RIGHT) and it was just a bunch of Paranoid right wingers scared for the future of their guns and scared for a Tax increase which was never there (or at least not for them anyway).

Republicans = Dixiecrats = Confederates = Stuck in the18th Century while the rest of us have moved forward.

Nixon wanted them and now that's all they've got.

Specter has been one of the most principled of the Republican politicians, with a record of infuriating party bosses. He votes shat he thinks is right, and although I have always thought he made some key mistakes (Ed Meese and Clarence Thomas confirmations for two) I have never thought he was voting for political advantage. Yes, he faced an uphill fight against a Limbaugh Republican, I doubt if he would have switched parties if he profoundly disagreed with its platform. However his voting record has straddled party lines.

Reading your post confirms at least one thing:

"Watching Fox News gives a false perception of reality."

Anyone in Ameica can do what Obama is doing if WE over spent by $ 10 Trillion dollars for the next ten years........

Sad...............and the under 30 voters who put Obama in the White House will be the ones who are saddled with that debt for the rest of their "poor" lifes............

spector is just one of many career politicians who would sell their mother, or first born, to stay employed as a career politician. spector is just doing what anyone else would do to keep a job. the blame in this case lies with voters who keep electing career politicians. if spector can pull it off, more power to him because he will get it one way or another. biden reportedly pressured spector to change parties so it's not all about spector but the WH too. there is no change, same old same old.
