Specter--the pro-choice Republican Senator from Pennsylvania who was re-elected with the help of the Bush White House and who is seen as the most likely person to chair the Senate Judiciary Committee--publicly warned Bush yesterday not to have an abortion litmus test for Supreme Court Judges. The Corner is reporting that there will be a new public statement forthcoming from him.
I agree with K-Lo at the Corner: "call and e-mail Bill Frist (and your Republican senators, if applicable) today. I’m pretty certain an overwhelming outcry from conservatives in the next few days is the only way Arlen Specter can be kept from becoming a huge obstacle. So get to work. Frist’s number is 202-224-3344."
