| Description | One day after Club for Growth President Pat Toomey said he may challenge Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA) in a 2010 primary, the group's members have voted Specter as the group's "Comrade of the Month" along with Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME) and Olympia Snow (R-ME) for their votes in favor of President Obama's stimulus package.
"While Senators Specter, Collins, and Snowe tout the stimulus bill as a compromise, it was more of a capitulation to the Democrats than anything else. Had these three senators voted with the rest of their party, President Obama would have been forced to engage the Republicans in a genuine compromise. Instead, American taxpayers are saddled with an $800 billion bill that will do little to stimulate the economy," Club for Growth Executive Director David Keating said in the group's press release. |
