Scarnati Comments on Specter

WARREN-Senate President Pro Tempore and Pennsylvania Lieutenant Governor had these comments regarding Senator Arlen Specter switching to the Democratic Party.

“I am disappointed that Senator Specter has decided to change parties, however, it really did not come as a surprise,” Scarnati said. “It goes without saying, judging by recent polling numbers, it was going to be a challenge for him to win, or even compete, in a Republican Primary.”

As a Republican leader in the Commonwealth, Scarnati felt compelled to respond to Senator Specter’s decision to abandon the Republican Party.

“Now is the time for Republicans to find a candidate who can successfully articulate the Republican brand of reform and fiscal restraint,” Scarnati added. “In addition, we must find a candidate who can effectively challenge the Democratic nominee, whoever it may be.”

“I am confident that we can find a candidate who shares the views of Pennsylvanians’ who want to keep more of the money they earn and not continue sending it to Washington,” Scarnati concluded.
