It's why he joined the democrats. The political calculation was that he couldn't win as an independent. He was going to lose much of the GOP vote, and at best he'd split the democratic vote. This wasn't Connecticut and Lieberman where the GOP refused to back their own guy and backed Lieberman instead. Specter knew he could only win as a democrat.
