This could lead to rulings such as the overturning of Roe v. Wade, a reversal of the Kelo decision, The court finding there is no constitiutional right to marry (gay marriage), along with a host of other important issues.

Does the author really believe McCain wants this?

[Loyal Buckeye]

Conservatives should not have to be told about the Court. It should be ingrained into their very being.

[Paladin2]

McCain has proven to be untrustworthy - on judges especially.

[devere]

Keeping Barry the Red out of the White House should be enough incentive. Anything else is just a dividend.

[cripplecreek]

Not sure mentioning the court and McCain in the same sentence is a great idea.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Did you joing FR just a few weeks back primarily to support Mr. McCain on this forum?

Just curious.

Welcome to FR.

Stevens 88, Ginsberg 75, Scalia 72, and Kennedy 71.

The flaw in that ointment is that 3 of those 4 were appointed by Republican presidents.

McMaverick-reaching-across-the-aisle, who would face a Dem controlled Senate Judiciary Committee and Dem controlled Senate, would hardly rock the boat and try to appoint conservatives.

First, he has significant disdane for conservatives anyway.

Second, he would have to make appointments he could get through the Senate -- controlled by Dems who are not going to allow him to move the SC any more to the right.

McCain should frequently mention the situation with future judge vacancies, and he should truly also be attacking the possible full enactment of the Fairness Doctrine often in order to silence conservatism for the long-term throughout the U.S. among a bunch of other issues! A Democratic majority in both Congress and the White House will truly harm the entire country for the long-term on all of the issues, and all conservatives must truly do their best to stop the U.S. from becoming a socialistic country for the long-term!

[VRWC For Truth]

McCain can QUIT running for President. That will sway me to vote GOP.

[Ogie Oglethorpe]

Probably the biggest reason McCain is the GOP nominee for president in 2008 is because it ensures that a fifth conservative NEVER reaches the Supreme Court - regardless of who is elected in November.

[NavyCanDo]

He could use this one to get the Christians firmly in his court.

This has got to be the funniest political satire video of all time. Rush Limbaugh says for a joke to be funny it has to have an element of truth in it. This one does, and in spades.

More of the liberal GOP holding up bogeymen in order to scare conservatives into surrendering.

If Senator McCain doesn’t pick a STRONG pro-life, conservative running mate, he will NEVER be able to convince conservatives that he will pick originalist judges.
