My earliest memories of Arlen Specter relate to my mother’s despise for him. It wasn’t until a couple of years ago that I learned her biggest problem with him was his conduct toward Anita Hill during Clarence Thomas’s confirmation hearings. Since I’m too young to remember the specific atrocities he committed, I’m finding lately that I think I actually like Specter.
Today, he kinda made me proud to be a Pennsylvanian.
