The ignoble end of Arlin Specter

As the results come in for the Pennsylvania nominations, Arlin Specter, formerly of the Republican Party, who switched to the Democrats to try and extend his political life, appears to have been defeated according to the initial vote counts.

It seems that the Democrats preferred a Democrat over a Johnnie come lately, or is it Arlin come lately.

Switching sides as political changes sweep the landscape is one thing. Arlin did it for purely selfish reasons, to get what he could when he faced a conservative opponent and never could get in the lead over him.

Arlin, all I can say is good riddance. To the voters in Pennsylvania, I say, excellent choice.
