And we need to. Okay, he was a pitbull for Clarence Thomas. And I'm thankful for that. But he's also part of the reason that Robert Bork's last name is now a verb. (Hat tip: The Spoons Experience.)
Bork could have been one of the great Supremes in our history, if not for Specter's opposition to his nomination. In other words, Specter is 50-50 on this issue. Which almost matches the 42% approval rating the American Conservative Union gives him.
With federal judges aggrandizing the people's powers to themselves, we NEED Supreme Court judges who will stick with the Constitution. But Specter is in line to be the next Chair of the Judiciary Committee. We can't trust him there.

DeWine (202) 224-2315
Sessions (202) 224-4124
Graham (202) 224-5972
Craig 202/224-2752
