“In his final floor speech, Specter complained there’s scant room for centrists like himself...”

Nuff said.

Plenty of spare time for Sphincter to brush up on his Scottish law.

I expect to hear the roar of approval from the left for Spector—”you go girl! you tell ‘em!” at the same time they continue to applaud their hero Alan Grayson for STTP. That’s the way the left rolls.

Maybe I’m asking a stupid question, but if he’s a democrat now, why does he care what goes on in republican primaries?

“Centrist”,oh, is that what he calls it when a politician switches sides THREE times out of blatant opportunism? Is this Bill Clinton-speak?

"Eating or defeating your own is a form of sophisticated cannibalism," he said.

And of course he is right. The point he misses, however, was that it was never about "eating our own" but expelling those who pretended to be our own.

With cannibalism and all it was actually Joe Sestak who retired him.

Go to hell Arlen. I can't wait till Gov' Corbett pulls the $10 million in spending Redull gave you for your library. You are the epitome of a failed politician. From the "Magic Bullet" theory to using Scottish Law to guide your decisions, you have made yourself a laughing stock and the irrelevant person you are today.

A centrist is a liberal who hasn’t yet been bought off by George Soros.

Hey Arlen, the Dems didn’t want you either. Nobody likes a backstabber. Just leave.....and have a few more of those sour grapes on your way out the door.

The sweetest goodbyes are those made to whining cry-baby RINOs, who actually think they are entitled to kick their party around and still get re-elected.

"What's that Arlen baby? Afraid you're gonna lose? Trust me, Arlen, old pal.
About as much chance as that happening as Michele having a watermelon-eating
contest on the WH lawn."

We're not eating our own if we're voting out the garbage, trash and scum that doesn't represent our own best self-interests.

As far as I am concerned he won’t be missed.
