Corrected spelling
Just go. I have little good to say about the mean little bastid who turned partisan traitor to save his hide.

#10  Like many of you I never cared for Specter but I also never read his entire bio before - an interesting mixed bag. Did some good things but overall too McCain-ish for me.

Anyone on here familiar w/Michael Smeerconish (sp?)? I was radio surfing on the way home one day and landed on his talk show (I was looking for Levin). Smeerconish seems like a nice enough guy and very civil to his callers but it was easy to tell that he's a total Rino or indy wuss. Not surprisingly he was going on about how a big Specter fan he was (puke).

#8  Not surprised. Out of Congress, out of that Special health plan. Suddenly he's one of the little people.

#5  Not to be pedantic or anything, but my inner copy-editor is saying that it's really a 'vale of tears'.

#3  Everyone makes this world a better place. Some by what they do here, some by leaving the scene.

#2  Nobody ever likes or trusts a traitor. After the Dems used him, they dumped him in the gutter.

#1  The ninth and last circle is ringed by classical and Biblical giants, who perhaps symbolize pride and other spiritual flaws lying behind acts of treachery.
