Default Specter

Specter was against the Fed Bill. How does he stack up on this one? Anyone know? Let's hope it doesn't pass either.

Steve- is it projected that the bill will pass after being voted on twice?

136-61

it moves on to the Senate. I'm not sure what the projection is there.
20 Dems, and 29 Republicans, 1 vacant seat, which should have been filled in May.

not sure that Arlen Specter would even meddle in state legislation.

... why are we even dealing with this... it shouldn't even be considered an issue. There are so many other things that we should be worrying about. Get people off the streets... don't spend time on a (what should be) a no-brainer. How can people think that it will be okay to write discrimination into the constitution... no matter what you think.... what ever side your on.... I don't see how that will ever be okay.
