Specter Hearts Coleman

Hey, Harry. Nice deal you made with Mr. Specter. We obviously need a vaccine for the Lieberman virus. Since Pres. Obama has stated he’ll campaign for Specter, it’s reach is alarming.
From a short interview with Specter to appear on Sunday:
NY TIMES: With your departure from the Republican Party, there are no more Jewish Republicans in the Senate. Do you care about that?
SPECTER: I sure do. There’s still time for the Minnesota courts to do justice and declare Norm Coleman the winner.
Two words: Joe Sestak.
“I can’t figure out…why the deal was done,” Sestak told me, saying he’s concerned that the party was so quick to embrace Specter for reasons of “expediency,” and without regard to the needs of Pennsylvania voters. “It isn’t Washington’s prerogative to tell us what to do,” Sestak insisted.
That goes double for me, because it will be all out war on this one. I campaigned hard for Sestak, as some of you might remember, when he was running against Weldon. That’s nothing compared to what’s likely to unfold this time around.
