Tex is on a distinguished road
Default Oops.

Arlen Specter, the repackaged Democrat senator, is facing a primary challenge from Democrat congressman Joe Sestak. Yesterday he sent out a Tweet (yes, he's 79; no, I don't think he's actually the one doing the "tweeting") about Sestak missing House votes on their first day back in session on Tuesday:

Your first day back in Washington and you're already skipping more votes, Congressman Sestak? http://tinyurl.com/p9wp6m
Turns out, the man's father died on Sunday.

Ouch.

Specter needs to go. Sestak isn't great by any stretch, but a dramatic improvement nonetheless.
