Thoughts and Prayers for Sen. Arlen Spector

US Senator Arlen Specter announced Tuesday that he had a recurrence of cancer which he had fought in 2005 but said he would still campaign for re-election in November.

Specter, an influential 78-year-old Republican lawmaker representing the northeastern state of Pennsylvania since 1980, was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease.

He underwent treatment for the disease three years ago and was declared in remission after six months of chemotherapy.
