Today, newly Democratic Senator Arlen Specter said that he hopes the Minnesota Supreme Court will rule in favor of Norm Coleman and that he will once again be seated as a United States Senator.
Someone get this man a primary opponent ASAP.
The revelation comes courtesy of an interview the Pennsylvania Senator gave for the New York Times Magazine. The complete interview will be available this weekend.
Arlen Specter recently made my list of Democratic Senators that are in the back pocket of the banking lobby. Specter voted against consumers by opposing the bill that would help to renegotiate home loans for thousands of home owners.
Many Minnesotans are pushing Norm Coleman to drop his pending lawsuit. In fact, failure to seat Al Franken is chipping into Governor Tim Pawlenty’s approval numbers.
The Minnesota Supreme Court will wait until this summer to make a ruling.

Hey there
Enjoyed you blog, and I have read a few of the other ones as well. Take a look at my blog: drmyers.wordpress.com; dealing with Specter (http://drmyers.wordpress.com/2009/04/29/personal-or-political-specter-jumps-ship/).
I’d love to dialog with you about perhaps placing a link there so my readers could take a look at what you’re doing.
Again, keep up the suburb work!
Thanks,
Aaron Myers
