I loved your put-down of econ-grad in post 971. I think everyone needs to cool off a bit and see how this all plays out now. My biggest take is that three of the "MOST EXTREME CONSERVATIVE JUDGES" are going to be confirmed right away. That's going to be very hard for the Demodog base to recover from...

Those three will get a vote. They aren't confirmed yet. Senators make all sorts of ugly side deals. The test is still coming - will ALL of the nominees get an up or down vote?

[Fledermaus]

There ya go falling into their trap. They and the MSM are the ones that defined them as "most extreme" or "controversial".

Accept their language, accept their premise and then define victory on their terms. That's not a win.

No it won't...the new spin will be that these three are the LEAST extreme, but that every single other nominee is so extreme that they should be gassed. And, GOD forbid, that the president dares to put one of these three ( whose conformation is NOT guaranteed, BTW ), he/she will immediately become an EXTREMIST again.

Thanks for the compliment. :-)
