WASHINGTON — Sen. Arlen Specter sought to minimize any political damage Wednesday after fellow Democrats decided against honoring the 28 years’ seniority he accumulated as a Republican before he switched political parties last week.
Specter expressed confidence that beginning in 2011, "my seniority will be maintained under the arrangement I worked out with” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., before switching.
