Republican National Chairman Michael Steele on GOP Senator Arlen Specter’s Party Switch

Michael Steele

Republican National Chairman Michael Steele responds to a question during a news conference before the Vanderburgh County Right to Life fundraising dinner in Evansville, Ind., Thursday, April 16, 2009

Republican National Chairman Michael Steele:

Some in the Republican Party are happy about this. I am not.

Let’s be honest-Senator Specter didn’t leave the GOP based on principles of any kind. He left to further his personal political interests because he knew that he was going to lose a Republican primary due to his left-wing voting record.

Republicans look forward to beating Sen. Specter in 2010, assuming the Democrats don’t do it first.

And, there is a possiblity that former Pennsylvania United States Senator Rick Santorum will run against Pat Toomey for the GOP nomination.

A Santorum vs. Specter race will be a sight to behold.

    Actually, I would vote for Phil Spector over Arlen any day of the week- seems like a more stable and sensible choice, lol.

    With all due respect, Senator- don’t let the door hit your butt on the way-out. And nobody on our side’s going to miss you.
