145. Your love is blinding you
Your unabashed worship of Obama has blinded you to the facts before you.

Specter voted for the stimulus before he switched, it is what drove him to HAVE to switch.

Specter needed to run as a democrat. He'd lose as an independent. HE decided that.

Obama didn't have to do much at all to encourage the switch. Reid held more sway. Biden had merely been working him for YEARS.

The White House rarely puts this much behind a primary candidate.

They didn't need to here, and now that it looks like they'll lose, they are pulling back.

The only clouding here is from your rose colored glasses.
