Thanks, Dan for that excellent Newsweek article. You sure are well versed in the media coverage of this story!

Fwiw, I have changed my opinion of Arlen Spector. I just saw him on a CNN show with Wolf Blitzer, topic republicans, with Randy Tate (Christian Coalition) and Mary Matalin. Spector told it like it was in that there is a litmus test from the republican leadership on a number of far right issues, the most significant of which is the abortion issue (of course) and if a candidate doesn't accept the far right position its hard to get money - therefore, the future of the republicans at this moment is with the extreme right. All the phone calls had the same theme - "the US doesn't want to be taken over by the far right" (like we don't all know that) and Randy Tate blurbed the usual rhetoric that more newly elected congresspeople were pro-life than non - yeah right.

Anyway I give credit to any republican that states in the media that they will not be bullied by their extreme faction. Peter King of NY also falls into that camp. Too bad our California republicans don't have any backbone.
