God save us from so called moderate Republicans....THERE ARE NO MODERATE REPUBLICANS, only sheeples in GOP clothing.

Those 3 aren't Republicans anyhow, strip them. Then target their asses in the next primary.

Too bad this isn't ancient Athens, we could have ostracized them back then.......

Kind of interesting where the word ostracized came from. In the ancient city state of Athens when someone was accused of some wrong doing they'd have a gathering of @500 people in an arena to hear and vote on the case. There were several forms of punishment for those found guilty but the most popular was exile. When the 500 made their votes they made marks on ostrakon (oyster shells) to be counted. Ostrakizein, literally means to banish with oyster shards, hence ostracize.... Ok, well, I thought it was interesting lol.....

Specter has always been a Dem sympathizer. Why he ran as a Republican is beyond me-----guess he fooled his constituents into thinking he was one of them.
