Specter noted he had been voting mostly with the Democrats for years. He recalled his successful fight, along with Senator Kennedy, to stop the controversial nomination of Judge Robert Bork to the Supreme Court in 1987. “It would’ve been a different world,” he said if Bork had been appointed. “Bork would have overturned Roe vs. Wade.”

Spector is lying. Bork has said that Roe v. Wade wasn’t going to be overturned if he made it to the Supreme Court. I can’t wait ‘till this idiot is unemployed.

The SOB finally admits he was a RINO all along..........with his Scottish law. Me thinks he sees the end of his miserable political lie.

The sad part of it is the SOB got away with being
a RINO for 30 + years.

Hasn’t he always had allegiance to the Democrat Party?

The ONLY thing that I can think of that Spector did to benefit this country was the role he played in Clarence Thomas's Senate hearing. Spector's questioning of Anita Hill helped to discredit her in the eyes of enough Senators to confirm Thomas by I think a 52-48 vote. IMO, it is a travesty that Robert Bork, an imminently qualified constitutional scholar, was NOT confirmed, whereas Sonya Sotomayor, the antithesis of Judge Bork, WAS confirmed.

he has about a year and 5 months to be a Senator. Then he will be like Chuck Robb , just walking through the Halls of Congress lost.

No, the sad part is the fact there are so many more just like him. Starting with mcQueeg, his leg-humping poodle Pandsey, the two females-one named Snowejob, the other’s name escapes me at the moment and...

...and they all need to be GONE!

And to think this back-stabbing traitor would have been just that six years ago if only...

Sigh.

Let’s ensure we finally right those 30+ years of wrong.

Let us pray. Please let him go up against a good conservative in the next election.
