Sad to hear today. As a Pennsylvania born native. I remember Specter when he was the D.A. In Philly before becoming a Democrat politician.

He had many good years as a Senator, and will be missed.

But now. Maybe he will have an Honest Answer, wherever he comes to rest, as to WHICH side of the Political Aisle he wants to face.

Politicians always are accused of FLIP-FLOPPING. Specter was a Master at it. Much like John Murtha...3985

RIP.
