Specter Slips, Thanks 'Republican' Committee for Primary Endorsement

Sen. Arlen Specter continues to have trouble remembering his party affiliation.

The Pennsylvania senator, who switched last year from a Republican to a Democrat after 45 years with the GOP, twice thanked the local "Republican" committee Tuesday for its endorsement -- though the group that endorsed him was the Allegheny County Democratic Committee.

The gaffe came exactly a week before Specter is set to face off against Rep. Joe Sestak in the Democratic primary election. Though he misidentified the local committee, he remembered what race he was running in.

Oh yes, I think I was more thinking about the fall too. They think by other dems winning primaries that it will help them, hopefully not so! Arlen needs to go period!

Specter is not only stupid, he’s senile to go along with it - a terrible combination.

Continuing to prove that he is the mindless idiot that he is. He probably still thinks he is in Scotland too.

he is slipping a lot like this lately, causing even passive voters to conclude he is no longer competent nor fit to hold office

I’ve been a lifetime citizen of PA. Arlen Specter has always been a first class skunk since he first was elected to the Senate. His recent campaign commercials have been pitifull. He looks and speaks like he’s moribund. Go away Arlen and leave us all in peace.
