That Specter,..He's Such a Card!

Is it all that chemo that's made him such an ass??

Specter Warms Up to Potential Deal on Major Labor Bill
Sen. Arlen Specter is facing re-election next year and is under pressure for pro-union groups as they consider whether to endorse him.

Specter had come out against the bill in March, disappointing labor leaders. They had hoped he would be the crucial 60th vote needed to overcome an expected GOP filibuster of the Employee Free Choice Act.

The Pennsylvania senator has since switched from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party, and he said he's been meeting with labor leaders and fellow senators in hopes of coming up with a compromise he could support.


Of course, unions and Democrats go together like ketchup and fries.
