They all look like they've been collectively kicked in the stomach.

It's like election night, but with WAY more of their patented shock and awe! lol

8. One of my thoughts regarding Spector's big
Change was that now the repukes are going to vilify him.

13. Are they calling it "treason" yet?
And of course, the next logical step - a firing squad?

22. Yeah, it's self preservation brought on by the dumbshit Republicans themselves.
If they hadn't stomped around like toddlers and straight up told Specter they were going to run him out of town on a rail, he wouldn't have switched.

28. Smart move.
Either he goes down with the ship or he stands for SOME kind of values. This is probably his last days in the Senate.

He doesn't want it to end in a disater of a party.

33. Brit Hume
saying that Specter's statement recently about being a Republican could be called "deceitful, hypocritical" at best. And of course, he doesn't think that this changeover implies or means anything for the Republican party.

36. The Republican Party should really start
a reality show so cameras are rolling behind the scenes to capture all of the turmoil .. the yelling and arguing .. the crying, the switching to the Democrats .. the despair, the hopelessness and failure as a party.

I know I wouldn't miss an episode. :popcorn: :beer:

We know exactly how you feel. Stomach in a knot? Depressing isn't it? Now try to imagine 8 years of this and how you loved sticking it us. And we're not even doing it to you. You did it to yourselves. :rofl:
