Specter scores a Twofer.

And some Democrats still wonder why Specter’s underwater in the polls. Via Hot Air, here we see Specter forgetting that he no longer gets the support of the College Republicans:

But that’s not the best part! The best part is, the College Democrats didn’t endorse him, either.

This is like a cry for help, isn’t it?  Well, I’m sure that the Other Side can get right on that.  He’s their problem now, after all.

    as my father and his family grew up in Uniontown PA and were coal miners. My father was the first and only one to get out, go to college at Bob Jones University, and we went up there almost every years till his parents died. The people of PA are a good group of people, but dumber than a tick sucking for blood on a stone.

    I say this because for so long they put Spector in power time after time after time. It was not the dems voting him in, it was the repubs. Hell even Bush, who for the most part I respect, campaigned for Spector against a conservative which to this day I do not understand. Spector almost always voted liberal and was know to be a huge spender of others money, yet each election he won and won big. Hence why I called the people of PA dumb. Question is have they brightened up enough to kick Spector to the curb, I sure hope so and will do everything in my power to be at Spectors concession speech laughing at his misplaced arrogance. PA do not disappoint me please. I know the stupidity has only been a temp condition, lets all hope it is cured!

    ***disclaimer*** I and everyone else knows there were many in the state of PA who never supported that bum or the lib given to them by the dems. It is all the rest my comment applied to.

    Much less be returned to the Senate. You’d think some aid or party boss might tell him it is time to go.

    I loved it!

    politics is like crack or meth. They are addicted to being the center of attention, having their egos stroked, and being the object of deference. Many, like Arlen Specter, will never walk away volutarily. I have a vague recollection of a movie or animated feature in which a terrible stage performer danced to the boos of the audience, while he dodged a stage hand trying to forcibly remove him. Arlen would rather receive public scorn than be out of the public eye.

    Twenty two solid votes right there. well, maybe not now.

    He still leads by double digits in the Dem primary.
    However, Toomey now leads him for the General. We’ll see if that holds out after the primary.

    I want to see Dr, Zoidberg lose to Pat Toomey in the General. Sestak is a left-wing nutjob and I am sure he would be easier to beat, but I want to see Arlen Zoidberg tossed in November and Pat Toomey getting revenge on Arlen. George Bush won’t save Zoidberg this time.

    Bush wanted Specter for his seniority on the judiciary committee, altho’ much good it did the former pres. much of the time. Specter held up nominations and often didn’t much support or push anyone Bush wanted. After all, Specter started as a Dem. in Phila. lo these many years ago. His “heart” was never in the GOP.

    endorsement of the Whig Party.

    to run through the litany of groups with whom they ever curried favor. Unthinking. Rote. The party identity is incidental to the sense of entitlement they bestow on themselves where the office is concerned. Self Affirmation. Stuart Smalley meets senility. Louis XIV – I am the state.

    Specter has always been an aggravating liberal sort, but in years past always appeared in complete control. Only recently has he seemed to lose touch with rationality. One must wonder if there’s a physical/mental issue here, in addition to his obvious two-faced political opportunism.

    And the hook is coming out from the left and right parts of the stage for him… I could run my dog against this man and win… hmmmm… Hey Lucky, come here boy… wanna be a Senator? Do you? Do you? What are you looking at me like that for?.. Ok… I won’t make you do it… I’ll let you out back so you can do your doggie business on our PA backyard, it’s about the same as what Arlen does anyhow…

    I tried to listen, but my dog started howling. Thanks, though. Did this woman actually perform in public? Without a bag over her head?

  • CincoSolas_del_Bronx

    in Philly and NY between the 2 wars, with enough of a fortune to rent halls–including Carnegie—whenever the need to share her talents overcame her.

    Our children’s chorale director always plays old Flo for the new members to show them what she doesn’t expect from them.

    For the musicians out there, my favorite anecdote, courtesy the wikipedia article:

    After a taxicab crash in 1943 she found she could sing “a higher F than ever before.” Instead of a lawsuit against the taxicab company, she sent the driver a box of expensive cigars.

    “After a taxicab crash in 1943 she found she could sing ?a higher F than ever before.? Instead of a lawsuit against the taxicab company, she sent the driver a box of expensive cigars.”

    That’s definitely worth style points.
