Come, now: We have to take into account that a President Obama will appoint young Sotomayors who will serve on the federal courts for 40 years. FORTY YEARS. Not four, not eight. FORTY. When that is properly weighed in the balance, one must forgive a LOT of less-than-perfect conservative-candidate failings. Those, we can correct in far less then 40 years. Judge appointments, not so much.
Romney has appointed and would appoint people who were just as bad. His history shows it. It would be even worse, because those people would get the ‘conservative’ stamp by default and then where are we? Kinda the same screwed place we’re in now, but slightly more screwed, I guess.
Willard appointed horrible leftists to the bench in Massachusetts. One of whom released a deranged lunatic who went and promptly brutally slaughtered a young couple, Brian and Beverly Mauck. When told of his handiwork, Willard was more indignant that it might make him look bad rather than expressing concern about the murdered couple (during his farce of a Presidential campaign in 2007).
BTW, he met with said judicial applicant for all of a few minutes (which close scrutiny of her record would’ve stopped her appointment), Willard had more pressing business to tend to. What was that ? He had a lunch reservation at Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse.
