We are always being asked to listen to the voice of the small contingent on the left such as Specter and his tiny band of allies. When are they going to listen to our side of the party? We’re always asked to give in to the moderates and the liberals. It’s about time the moderates and liberals acknowledged that it’s long past time when we conservatives — the majority in the GOP — had a voice in this party.
A note of caution to President Obama: Don’t let your happiness over picking up a vote in the Senate lull you into forgetting that having Arlen Specter in your ranks is like having Benedict Arnold in your army. He may be with you today but the chances are whenever he finds it’s convenient, he’ll turn on you. That’s the nature of the beast.
