Vice President Biden’s office is not giving any details on a report that he has tried to recruit Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA) to switch parties.

As we posted on earlier today, Governor Ed Rendell (D-PA) said in an interview that he has tried to get Arlen Specter to switch parties — and according to Rendell, so has Biden.

Biden deputy press secretary AnnMarie Tomasini tells TPM: “Our office does not comment on the Vice President’s private conversations with Senator Specter.”
