This is my worry.. losing the Supreme Court. I mean, Kennedy is sometimes good, but he goes against us on some pretty big-ticket items.

If Hillary gets in, I fear her replacing Scalia, Thomas, or Kennedy. And we’d lose a golden opportunity to replace that old troll Ginsberg. They’d have a five-member majority, which would mean liberal rulings on EVERYTHING, from religious liberty, guns, life. We could win all the downticket races we want after that, state, federal, city, etc - but the liberals would bring lawsuits, and their robed goons would knock-down ANY legislative progress we make.

I’m 37 right now. Losing 2016 and the judiciary would mean I’ll be an old man before I see a chance that the country could even begin to recover. And that’s if I make it that long.

2016 is this nation’s fork in the road. If conservatives lose, I’m out. I’m done. If we lose, I step-up my prepping for the inevitable collapse, and I quit caring about a nation I wouldn’t recognize anymore.

Losing the Supreme Court?

Hell, that ship sailed years ago. The Supremes ruled in favor of ObamaCare. And they will rule in favor of queer marriages in the very near future.

I've never pinned any hopes on SCOTUS. Just like I don't have any big hopes and dreams for a Republican controlled Congress.

I have always said that Justice Kennedy is the most powerful man in the world. Not the president, Kennedy is. The votes normally, and I’d say normally is 99.9% of the time, the vote is 4-4 and Kennedy is the one all the lawyers are going after. They know they have either of the 4 they need, Kennedy IS the guy.
