Is Arlen Specter Losing His Marbles?

I saw this a few days ago, but held off posting it, since the claims made by this guy are a bit dicey, and he is a lefty more upset that a declining Specter spells a Toomey victory. And the thought of kicking a man who is apparently in decline kinda bothered me.

But, I slept on it, and said, "Fuck It! Let's air it!" I mean, how many shady to downright phony allegations of health/mental condition/sexual proclivities/etc. have the lefties used over the years in an effort to defeat a candidate, sway a vote, or impact a policy paper? In that case, why can't we use unscripted video clips against them as well, especially when a big time lefty utters something this interesting?

Look… Does anyone think Specter makes the mistake he made with Bachmann 5 or 10 years ago? 5 or 10 years ago, does he awkwardly climb up on the stage while his primary opponent is being interviewed at an event ? At least Kanye West was drunk!

Dementia isn’t something you wake up with one morning. It’s not something that comes upon you suddenly… It’s a progressive affliction.

The problem for Specter and Pennsylvanian’s {sic-ed}trying to decide who to support in the primary is that the decision is one they’ll be saddled with for six years (assuming Specter can beat Toomey). If Specter is showing signs of dementia today, they are pretty mild. He’s still capable of campaigning, legislating and, in general, doing what he needs to do to be relevant today. The problem is he can do all that with 95% of the capacity he had 5 years ago. But next year where will he be? 92%? 90%? 80%?

So, enjoy this guy, Democrats. He's your problem now.
