Dubya will get re-elected or not regardless of what the readers of this article will do. Nothing to get excited about. Judiciary at all levels and in most states is the only branch of the government that the CPUSA, in its various disguises, has a lock on, and CPUSA is not going to let go. There isn't a chance in hell that Bush II can succeed in appointing a conservative like Scalia or Thomas to SCOTUS.

You couldn't be more wrong if you were intentionally trying to be. After what happended to the Dems in the 2002 senate races, just one high profile win for the Repub's in a the Senate and the blockade folds like a dirty shirt. The Senate Repubs were vulnerable in 2002 and carried the day. The Dems are vulnerable in 2004 and 2006. If they lose on judges in 2004 they won't risk it for 2006. The GOP should pull out whatever stops necessary to get a Thune victory over Daschle. Right now Schumer is vulnerable in New York also, I'm just not sure of who the right person to take him on is. Boxer is vulnerable also, and wouldn't that scare the pants of the Dems if she lost?

Yep, I'm wrong! Evidence? Miguel Estrada! (Among others.)

No explanations, no excuses, no predictions of Babs Boxer losing (that one's a hoot - an incumbent RAT Senator losing!)

if the GOP picks up 3 or 4 seats esp on the judge issue, than a lot of Dems up in 06 will let Bush get his judges so they keep their seats.
