As familiar as Specter is to me by now, I think it's time for real change. I am supporting Joe Sestak. While Specter's seniority does perhaps enable him to bring money to Lancaster, it's very telling to me that his (as it's related) first instinct upon being asked why we should vote for him, is to invoke his seniority. I think he feels entitled. And I'm angry that the Democratic leadership (not that I expected differently) has tried to quietly clear the field for him on the premise that he simply deserves the seat. Let Pennsylvania's democrats decide who we're going to elect. Specter is no liberal.

At this time, with our country in a shambles from the Bush administration and all the other "crisis's" we face, I'm very glad we have Specter's experience to draw on. I don't think I've ever heard Specter say anything that wasn't 'feet on the ground' common sense. I'm glad he's healthy again and up to the challenge.

To the last post. I hate to tell you but Congress has more power than any administration. It is not all George Bush's fault. It is a combination of both the irresponsibility of the Democrats AND the Republicans. Shambles is what you get with this out of control spending. McCain called it in the debates Obama denied that he would have trillions in new spending without the ability to pay for it.
