Not that this should be a surprise to anyone, but the RINO finally shed its skin and emerged as a full-fledged Democrat. 

Arlen Specter is a big government scumbag.  He loves government interference in everything. 

Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter will switch his party affiliation
from Republican to Democrat, according to sources informed of the
decision.

Specter’s decision would give Democrats a 60 seat filibuster-proof
majority in the Senate, assuming Democrat Al Franken is eventually
sworn in as the next senator from Minnesota. (Former senator Norm
Coleman is appealing Franken’s victory in the state Supreme Court.)

Specter as a Democrat would also fundamentally alter the 2010
calculus in Pennsylvania, as he was expected to face a difficult
primary challenge next year from former represenative Pat Toomey. The
only announced Democrat in the race is former National Constitution
Center head Joe Torsella, although several other candidates are looking
at the race.

Good riddance.  Why not take Snowe and Collins along too?
