If this is the case, then it is time to purge the pro-aborts from the Republican Party. It would be better if these seats were Dem. The realignment of the parties' political axis and regional strengths must continue. These quislings undermine the mission of the party (which for some of us is not merely to win elections to get jobs for our buddies).
The date was July and I believe that the source was some law firm's newly created SCOTUS nominee website. Sheer speculation signifying nothing but the law firm's probable view that it is bored with all that haggling over a mere 45 million little corpses and wished that attention be paid to nuances of anti-trust law, commerce clause stuff and the other REALLY important issues.
Yep, but watch out for the RepuliBots. RINOs are damaging to the party. Seats give us committee leadership and majorities but I am not convinced we could not win without them... Four more senate seats would do it and maybe little bitty offices in the broom closet of the Senate Office building for Snowe and Collins would do it..(Right between the men's room and the Hagel and McCain offices.) I can see one seat in Lousianna that should be up for grabs in about 5 years but I bet we can gain two elsewhere in the next go round in '06.
You can have Snowe & Collins anytime you want them! Take them please. The mods and liberals pretty much purged the Conservatives in the Republican Party up here in Maine several years ago. It's pretty much hopeless up here.
