Arlen Specter flips, now a Dem

 

Only comment on I have is big farking whoop. Only thing that’s changed is he’ll have a D by his name instead of R and since he votes with Dem’s most of the time we won’t notice a damn thing.

Veteran Sen. Arlen Specter announced Tuesday his intent to switch from the GOP to the Democratic Party, earning him the support of President Obama in next year's re-election campaign.

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Tuesday Obama will raise money and campaign for Specter if asked.

Despite winning election to the Senate five times as a Republican, Specter has jumped ship faced with the prospect of a strong challenge from conservative Pat Toomey in the GOP primary and Pennsylvania trending Democratic.
