Video: Democrat Arlen Specter tells Republican voters to re-elect Orrin Hatch

The man who had no political future in the Republican Party after he helped put the 2009 stimulus bill over the top is now encouraging Utah's Republican voters not to "cannibalize" Orrin Hatch. Yes, Arlen Specter betrayed his Party and went to one where he fit right in. So, why would a Democrat encourage Republican voters to vote for Hatch based on the premise that Hatch has the best chance to win? Doesn't make much sense, does it? Wouldn't it make more sense for Specter to encourage those voters to go with the more conservative candidate if he has less of a chance in the general?
