A tipster sent me this tidbit on the Specter switch and what it may mean down the road. I'm holding back giving out the tipster's name because I don't know her Moronosphere nickname.

Anyway, bounce this around, and thanks for tips.

I heard from a Patrick Murphy (I'm in his district) campaign worker that this Specter switch was ginned up for the benefit of Murphy. The idea goes that Specter turns "D", retires at some point in the near future due to health/age, and Rendell appoints Murphy to the seat. The woman who told me this thinks it's a swell idea, and upon reflection, it sounds kinda credible. Anyhoo, just thought I'd pass that along for your thoughts. Murphy is definitely ambitious, and on the payback track (threw Hillary under the bus for Obama).
