Arlen Specter plays for the other team?

Well, politically speaking it looks like he has jumped ship and gone over to the Democrats. Apparently, Specter was seduced by Obamagasms after the president whispered in his ear “Hey, Arlen, I will campaign for you if you switch” No word yet on whether or not Specter will get to use knee pads or will have to tough it out.

You know what Arlen, good freaking riddance to you! Do us a favor and take Meghan McCain with you. You do belong in the Democratic Party frankly.

Here is what others are saying about Specter

Texas Rainmaker makes a great point about Specter disenfranchising the voters of his state.

SisterToldjah points out that this must be a real kick in the nuts for the GOP establishment.

Michelle Malkin echoes my feelings about Arlen’s departure

The Other McCain also seems as broken up over this as I am.

Dan Riehl reminds us that Specter has switched before

This Ain’t Hell seems pretty depressed over Specter’s exit
