In order to get Specter to lave the GOOP it was part of the enticement package. Clear the field and endorse him early. :shrug: His defection had short term and medium term bennies for the President and quite frankly from a purely political perspective, First Term presidents could care less about the long term.... It's the price you pay. :shrug:
