True, I don't see why this will much change how he votes. I'm sure he'll stick with his new caucus on more procedural things but nothing really important where he has so far disagreed with (the new for him) party line.
I also don't think it eases his next campaign a lot. Yes, if he survives the primary he'll probably easily beat whoever the Republicans put up, but I don't see why the state party would have much reason to put a lot of weight behind him when they could have a true Democrat (rather than a slightly more conservative Lieberman).
Seems to me that Specter will be hoping to skate through the primary on name recognition.
