Arlen Specter Is Now Writing In Crayon

[Bill Murphy]

"Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pennsylvania, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said senators had discussed with O'Connor a scenario under which she might consider changing her mind if Rehnquist retired and Bush offered to make her chief justice.

"The response that I heard was that she said she was flattered, that she didn't say no," Specter, who was not among that group, said Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation." "I think it would be quite a capping to her career if she served for a time, maybe a year or so." "

I'm just speechless here. Sandy obvo realized what she was dealing with; her husband also has Alzheimer's, and she didn't want to upset him.

Shame, I always liked Specter.
