Man, those Republicans are looking good---without even half trying......doing nothing IS a good strategy.
WHO KNEW Dumbocrats were so adept at self-immolation? ROTFLOL.
The Fraternal Order of Police LEANED REAL HARD on those Democrats. Imagine interfacing with this Obama pick as head of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights division? What’s shocking to me is after those vulnerable Democrats saw how things were falling apart - that the Democratic Party Caucus wasn’t holding together, why in the hell didn’t they change their votes to “No?” Must be that the race-baiters and Harry Reid have a bigger lock on them than the FOP.

Yes, I can't recall the last time that Democrats in the Senate helped to defeat anything - legislation or a nominee - that the Obama White House wanted. This could even be the first time it's happened. So it's a pleasant surprise for us, and an indicator that Zero finally might be losing his all-powerful grip on his own party.
They probably had Harkin come out to the media with his racial diatribe, rather than Reid, because Harkin is retiring and has nothing politically to lose at this point.
Now who were those seven Dems who voted against the nominee? Bet you that all or most of them are running for re-election in tough races this year.
