While I am not shocked that Arlen Specter and Olympia Snowe are the two leading "moderates" who appear willing to side with the pro-Spendulus crowd (and Collins seems to holding out for some sort of payola for her vote), one thing came to mind.

Arlen Specter has to run in 2010 in a primary for his Senate seat. Why not revive and retool Project Leper? This time, any politician who endorses Specter over a viable primary challenger (Please run again, Toomey!) should be shunned and lose funding. Same goes for any staffer/paid hack who offers to work on the Specter Primary Team. And why not do the same for any other "moderate" who joins with the pro-Spendulus crowd?

If this were the only example of Specter, Snowe, Collins, et al. stabbing us in the back, that would be one thing. But this has been going on for decades with these tools, and enough is enough. I no longer buy the argument that we need Arlen Specter in the Senate because he is an "R". Fuck that! He has never worked with us, and never will.

Too bad Chuck Hagel is no longer around. Then I might really get angry.
