Seriously, I don't think Specter is gonna be easily swayed one way or another. What I don't get is, at his age why the hell does he want to keep working? I'd be retired for 20 years by his age.

That's true. The change in party affiliation will have absolutely no effect on how he would vote. His ideology has been constant throughout his tenure in the Senate. He'll certainly be no rubber stamp for Obama.
In past elections I've voted against him. Assuming he wins the 2010 Dem. primary, I'll have to see who's running against him (possibly Toomey or former US Senator Rick Santorum) before I decide.
Specter is an opportunist, but he has serious health issues as he's battled cancer.
