Open Left

Before and After

 When Arlen Specter was a Republican, the Democrats had to deal with a senator who opposed EFCA, covered for the worst Republican criminal excesses, sabotaged all progressive elements to the federal budget, and generally preened about as if the world revolved around him.

 Now that Arlen Specter is a Democrat, the Democrats now have a senator who opposes EFCA, covers for the worst Republican criminal excesses, sabotages all progressive elements to the federal budget, and generally preens about as if the world revolved around him.

 Pardon me if I'm not exactly in cartwheel mode.
