Specter'sVote On Kagan Being Bought?

I have no idea how Arlen Specter could have credibility with anyone so the details coming out that the White House may be offering up a job to the turncoat are a little shady in my book.  It seems Specter wants a little job security - he already knows he is out of the Senate in January - so he is asking the White House for what is essentially political welfare. 
In case you were not aware - originally Specter was not supportive of Kagan for the Supreme Court  but after asking for a job he has turned coat once again.  The Left believes that the end justifies the means.
