I want to see a strict constitutionalist put up for the court (by definition, that will be a conservative). I do not want to see the president swayed by week-kneed RINOs or the hand-wringing MSMers or hysterical Democratic senators.

Show me what I came for. Show me what I paid for. Show me that you will deliver what you promised.

Because if you don't...if somewhere in the back rooms, part of the calculus is, Who else are they gonna vote for anyway? (other than whatever Republican is running), I'm going to vote for her to show you that I am tired of being taken for granted. Very, very tired.

How often here on FR we complain about how the Dems keep African-Americans on "the plantation"--taking them for granted, of course...BECAUSE WHO ELSE ARE THEY GOING TO VOTE FOR?

We felt a little superior, didn't we? But if the wrong nominee comes up, it only shows they were taking us for granted once again. Only this time, it's on one of the most important issues affecting our lives. (Yes, I take some hope that the national outcry over last week's land-grab ruling will inform the SC choice, but I fear that it will only be a small part of the decision.)

This is for me and my wife...and our kids...and our grandchildren. This nominee is the key to how the court will judge for a long, long time, likely.

And if this screaming, disingenuous, manipulative MINORITY can control the nominee when we (technically) have more power....

We might as well elect Hilary, because it won't make any difference. And she'll be such a horrible, leftist, socialistic, fascistic president...that maybe one day we'll finally catch some Republican politicians with some balls.

Pretty interesting. You are going to show a man, whose political career ends on Jan. 20, 2009, that if he doesn't do something you want him to do, you are going to vote for a woman who will destroy our nation. A large scale threat like this might mean something if he were running in 2008.

A real threat would be to the senators who are up for a vote in 2008 who refuse to support a conservative choice for the court. Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't get your logic.

I'd vote for Castro before I'd vote for Hillary.

Well....guess your lookin' to take America totally down on a fact track. That's what Hildabeast will do. I don't care, I'll never vote for a communist who hates Our America and will destroy us.

The absolute hell all of us went through with the 'toons' administration...is not somethin' I'm willing to do again. It was like tic toc what's next...we got WACO, OKLAHOMA BOMBING, COLUMBINE...and those two just kept on giving.
