According to TPMDC, Pennsylvania Representative Joe Sestak is privately telling supporters that he's planning on making a Senate run. A final decision is expected soon.So, will Arlen Specter make a big move to the left in order to thwart this challenge, knowing that no matter how far left he runs, he'll still be able to have the center to himself in the general election? A crucial indicator will be Specter's final stance on EFCA. He's talking compromise, which will likely end in him endorsing the bill and voting for it and smiling while he does it, kinda like his reaction to the president's nomination of Sonia Sotomayor. The unions are waiting.
Tonight Specter makes his debut as a limosine liberal at a swanky DNC fundraiser in L.A. I never get invited to anything.... [sigh]. Wonkette provides supplemental snark.
