Hate hate hate

Man, the GOP sure is steamed at this Arlen Specter bozo. Who does he think he is? Defecting his party just to get re-elected? What a bonehead!

Well, they'll show him, won't they? They're going to try their hardest to make sure that he doesn't get re-elected. They're going to attach the most assuredly damning political kryptonite available to ensure that Specter never sees the light of political day after 2010.

They're chaining him to George W. Bush.

Not the worst strategy in the world. Hey, it's worked for Democrats masterfully since 2006. Why not give them a taste of their own medicine, says Senate Republicans.

The Bush Hatefest continues. Personally, as I said in an earlier post, I think the GOP ought to be more progressive and forward-thinking if they hope to be politically viable. This is, while seemingly counter-intuitive in a 'This might be crazy enough to work!' sort of way, it's still harping on the past.

But you certainly can't begrudge Republicans for the move. Again, it has worked masterfully before.
