To sum up Spectre's argument-
The filibuster is a consequence of politics, and retaliation that built over decades. It is dangerous to our Republic.
He still wants a compromise, preferably one that codifies the definition of extreme etc...
He wants an up and down vote on all nominees.
Why is everyone getting worked up about Spectre? Settle down. Spectre is being Spectre but I've seen nothing yet to state he isn't voting with us.

All he's doing is proving that it's the Democrats who won't compromise.

It depends from which side you're listening to Spectre. He's dancing down the middle of the road so far IMHO.

Specter is adopting the newest democrat strategy.
They have offered to vote on "less controversial" (read less conservative)
nominees OTHER THAN Owen and Brown.
