After years of wrong votes and embarrassing his party, one of the biggest RINOs in Congress finally gets something right; Arlen Specter will switch to the Democratic Party for the 2010 election.  In his own words, the Democrat Party is more in line with his beliefs than the Republican.  This would be because the Republican Part is closer to a conservative party than the Democrats will ever be.

Arlen has been a pro-choice, tax-and-spend Senator for quite some time.  He has voted anti-life on many occasions and voted for the recent Stimulus debacle.  He has, in fact, been the poster child for the definition of a RINO.

The funny thing is that he claims he came into office as part of the “diversity” that swept in with Reagan.  That makes me wonder if he read anything Reagan believed in.  Considering Reagan ushered in a revival of conservative principals, Arlen missed that one, too.

For years I was disappointed in Pennsylvania Republicans that they couldn’t put an end to Specter’s reign of liberalism.  At least now he’ll help them out by getting out of the way.  Of course, the funny thing will be when Democrats won’t vote for him because they won’t forgive him for his former allegiance.

So, along with many, many other true Conservatives, we say “thank you and good-bye” to Arlen.”  Good riddance.
