Arlen Specter just lost his election today.

If it wasn't already lost.

He told Michelle Bachman to "act like a lady". It's difficult to defend the crazy lady on just about anything but Specter was way out of line, from what I heard on the clip played on Hardball.

He may have had some residual support from some Republican voters but that will be gone by the time of the general election. Today did not help him. Also, many Democrats will simply not vote for him. I would say that he is the number one candidate with the chance of losing his seat in the next election. If Democrats are smart, they will defeat him in the primary, in my opinion.
