[79] ARLEN SPECTER
POLITICAL FOOTBALLER

We don’t like to pick on cancer patients, which is why Specter didn’t show up on this list back in ’06, after he filled in for Dr. Evil at John Roberts’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings. But let’s fast-forward, shall we? The Iraq War is five years old, the intelligence community has a blank check to play Peeping Tom on American citizens, and the senator from Pennsylvania is worried about this Patriot act: a sports team from Teddy Kennedy’s state that beat the sports team from Specter’s state. Dear bulgy-eyed, sore loser: blow us.

Sexy? Unsexy? Tell us what you think!

You're being petty here. He's probably an Eagle's who let his sports sentiments interfere with his legislative integrity, but there are plenty of Red Sox and Yankees fans who go a lot further than that. Hell, how many other Republicans have a mutually-respectful relathionshis with Pat Leahy? There are far worse Republican legislators to pick on.
