During the event, which was held soon after Specter’s vote for the stimulus, Rendell chided the senator for being a Democrat in Republican’s clothing.

“You could make life a little easier for yourself by taking that registration card of yours and making that little change from ‘R’ to ‘D,’ ” Rendell said to Specter, according to a pool report from the event.

The report also said Biden joked that Specter knew in his heart that he was a Democrat.

"Specter looks to be in serious trouble in the GOP primary, with former Rep. Pat Toomey set to run against him for the second straight election. Toomey lost by less than 2 percent in 2004, and Specter is polling horribly with the GOP base.

A Susquehanna poll from late February showed 66 percent of Republicans favoring a new senator and just 26 percent supporting Specter."


He should really make the switch.
