Specter Switches Political Parties
Marked as one of the last northeast Republicans, Arlen decided to ditch a difficult oncoming Primary in Pa. & switch from being a Republican to a Democrat. Too bad our local Chafee never did the same in '06.

"If government is not good perhaps it is because the "good" refuse to participate and so we get the government that we deserve."-Mark Twain "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -Teddy Roosevelt
