Trouble for Specter?
In 2010, Arlen Specter, the last so called moderate Republican outside Maine, could face some serious reelection trouble, if he gets a genuine primary challenge from the right.
This could be a Republican kind of replay of Lieberman/Lamont primary, except that there'd be no real "running as an independent" path for Specter in the General.
How would the GOP handle this? Establishment for Specter, outside figures propping up challenger? Does the GOP try to squash the primary challenge for the pro-choice Specter?
Just a stray thought on a slow morning.
Later: A strong rumor/trial balloon that Toomey is in.
