Well, well, well…
Arlen Specter is the least likable type of politican– the one who switches positions based strictly on polling and whimsy (most of Congress does this in some form, but not as blatantly).
In addition to his long list of other embarrassing blunders (claiming the Military Commissions Act was one of the worst laws to ever be proposed before Congress and unconstitutional, then voting for it is one low point), we now have this: Specter proposing a law banning party changes by Senators after Jim Jeffords turned independent in 2001. As we all know, Specter switched parties on Tuesday after polls showed he had no hope of winning the Pennsylvania Republican Senate primary next year.
