Arlen Specter Whines About Tea Party

Incumbent Senator Arlen Specter, the longest serving Pennsylvania senator in its rich history, lost in the Democrat primary.

Specter switched parties after Obama was elected President and joined Harry Reid's Dem team. Many touts said Specter switched parties because he could read the hand-writing on the wall. He understood he had no chance of winning the 2010 Republican Senate primary. Turns out he couldn't win the Democrat primary against Joe Sestak either.

Here is a video of Specter whining about the thriving Tea Party movement. The Tea Party has no defined platform. However, you could describe it as a people's movement to take back over our government and restore freedom pursuant to the Constitution.

Here, Specter is trying to be critical of the Tea Party movement and cast its ideas as screwy. In listening to his complaints, however, I'm at a loss to see anything wrong with the Tea Party policy ideas.
