The Washington Times notes:

At 4:07 p.m. Tuesday, the front page of the Democratic National Committee Web site flashed the headline: "Welcoming Sen. Specter to the Democratic Party."

"Earlier today, Senator Arlen Specter left the Republican Party and he is now a Democrat," the DNC announced. "Help us welcome Sen. Specter. Post a comment."

Twenty-four hours later, not one visitor to the widely-viewed DNC site saw fit to comment.

SO THAT'S IT

"The president approached me when he was Senator Obama, before the Democratic primary. And he said, 'Tell me, Arlen, if a Jewish kid from Kansas can carry Pennsylvania, how can a black kid from Kansas carry Pennsylvania?' And I gave him some advice, and he became, he became president of the United States of America."
