Isn't it satisfying when traitors get what's coming to them? A good back-stabbing is exactly what Arlen Specter deserved.....
Despite promises from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) that Sen. Arlen Specter (Pa.) would retain his seniority after switching parties, Specter will be put at the end of the seniority line on all his committees but one under a resolution approved on the floor late Tuesday.
Under the modified organizing resolution, Specter will not keep his committee seniority on any of the five committees that he serves on and will be the junior Democrat on all but one — the chamber’s Special Committee on Aging. On that committee, he will be next to last in seniority.
Arlen must be feeling pretty stupid right about now. Everybody knows Harry Reid is a dirty, rotten, lying sack of crap. Did Specter really think that other senate democrats would give up their committee seniority because he decided to be a democrat, only to save his career? And that's the funniest part, he may not have saved his career. He might still lose in the next election as Pennsylvania democrat voters might decide he's untrustworthy.....which he is.

Do these two deserve each other or what?
The GOP is blessed that Specter jumped ship. His exit will help fuel conservative fund raising and should help propel a conservative to the PA Senate seat.
For a look at why the GOP is very happy Specter left the party, you can hit:
