You bring so much to the conversation... Instead of insulting me why don't you explain how someone to the right of Roberts would get a majority to vote for confirmation considering the likes of Snowe, Collins, Specter, and Chaffee.

Well you offered terms of surrender without a fight or reasons given. I'm sure I'm entitled to offer to fight the good fight without explaining my position.

But when Janice Rogers Brown has already been confirmed, when Bill Pryor has already been confirmed, when Emilio Garza was confirmed years ago -- hey, the Democrats and RINOs are certainly welcome to b**** and moan as much as they want to but the fact is it's like dealing with children -- if you're firm with them they'll do what you want, if you cater to them every time they pitch a fit you're letting them rule you. There's half a dozen Democrat senators who would be torpedoing their reelection chances by defeating a conservative Supreme Court nominee. We have them over a barrel. And you want to surrender.

Yes, that's cowardice.
