These people just never stop!!

[VoiceOfBruck]

I'm shaking in my boots.

And I'm not even wearing boots.

[ex-snook]

How many Evangelicals or practicing Catholics are in Bush's final four?

That is the metric.

[WOSG]

Let's get together and send our 'acceptable' names for the 2008 Democratic nomination for President.

[WOSG]

Um, 'final 4' doesn't matter.

He nominates one.

[cripplecreek]

Ward Churchill

Michael Moore

George Soros

Al Franken


A democrat acceptable short list direct off the democratic short bus.

[Cowboy Bob]

I still want to see the list of people that the Democrats consider "unacceptable."

[dhs12345]

Pretty silly. They will push and bluff until they realize the consequences -- no more filibusters and Bush can get whomever he wants confirmed.

They don't want it to come to this. I suspect that they will pull back at some point.

[handy old one]

Sorry not liberal enough.

[msnimje]

I have decided the Democratic Party needs to officially change its name to the Indignation Party. That is all they do, call the news cameras around and throw Indignation Parties.

[skyhawk9211]

I have 'thought on it', and I simply can't think of an 'acceptable' name for the 2008 democRAT nomination for 'president'

[cripplecreek]

I was picking "moderate" democrats.

[ex-snook]

"Um, 'final 4' doesn't matter."

"He nominates one."

You're right. But if they are not well represented in the 'final four' their name won't even get in the hat!

My own prediction is that the Dem's have NO intention to vote on a SCOTUS nominee. They will continue to ask for more & more info until October comes and goes.

Once a nominee is selected... the DNC/MSM will begin the drumbeat. 24/7 propaganda that the guy/gal is toooo conservative... toooo much of an activist. If they can manipulate the polls to their favor... they might force an impasse.

[Dolphan]

Dems expect Republicans to act as though they've lost the election, which is expected.

Problem is, the GOP seems to agree with them.

Party discipline does not exist in the GOP, with idiots like Specter, McCain and Graham running around.

Strangely enough, this reminds me of times when I was a kid. I'd do something wrong, get punished, and I'd cry. Then my mom or dad would say, "Shut up, or I'll really give you something to cry about."

Well, if the Dims push too hard, the pubbies will REALLY give them something to cry about - no more filibusters on judicial nominees. (I only wish it could be for all presidential nominees, but alas.)

[CFC__VRWC]

I still want to see the list of people that the Democrats consider "unacceptable."

Anyone that George Bush or any conservative names, will name or even thinks about naming.

[Mcirrus]

"Let's get together and send our 'acceptable' names for the 2008 Democratic nomination for President."

They would need someone who would reflect the qualities of their party. Here are my top three candidates.

1. Pauly Shore
2. Michael Schiavo
3. Ward Churchill
