FILE - In this Sept. 30, 2009, file photo, Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., reacts to being acknowledged by President Barack Obama, who spoke National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md. Come February 2010 eight months of primaries for party nominations get under way in House, Senate, gubernatorial and legislative races nationwide. Specter, who ditched the GOP in 2009 to avoid a primary, finds himself in a race against Democratic Rep. Joe Sestak, who has grabbed the outsider role at a time when voters hate insiders.
