I personally never thought this day would come, but here it is. When my phone rang this morning I never thought it was going to be this headline, “Specter Running as a Democrat.” But times are different, and so is the political season. Arlen Specter has been a public servant of Pennsylvania for many years, and no matter how disappointed I am with this switch I will still cast my vote for him. Sure it would help the Republicans to beat Specter but I feel that Toomey is not PA and is not worthy of my vote. Some Dems are probably happy with this switch as they should be, but realize this. In 2005 when it looked as if the Democratic Party was falling apart, I to thought I was witnessing the fall of their party, but as we now it takes complete lost and defeat after defeat for any come back to be achieved. My away messages and facebook comments in 2005 all stated the death of the Democratic Party was at hand, but a true person of history would have been able to tell that political parties don’t die but rather in lost become stronger. It has only been fours years since 05 and now the Dems control the House, the Senate, and White House which just four years ago all were controlled by the Republican Party. So with a sigh and a deep breath I take this lost and wish Senator Specter the best of luck.
PS. Sorry about not posting anything before just wasn’t feeling too political.
