The Prof already showed she donated to the DNC in November of 1988. Virtually all the money donated to national parties in a presidential election year go toward the Party's presidential nominee.

At any rate, I her ideology is really a side issue. Fact is, no nominee so utterly lacking in competence should ever be nominated, regarless of her ideology.

Ideology is no substitute for competence.

I find quite a few things troubling about this nominee, I don't particularly like the fact that she supported the DNC financially, especially when Dukakis and Gore were the candidates. I don't care much for her creds as head of the Austin chapter of the ABA, (shiver!) She doesn't have a rep for fighting for anything, and even if you make the excuse that those campaign contributions were "hedging bets", that bespeaks a weak spine. What we need on the Supreme Court is someone who will take a STAND for this country, not look to be making political deals. I'm sure that even if she leans right, she is going to get lots of weight pushing her to the left. Has she ever shown any indication that she will not just "get along". (one of my biggest gripes about Bush, btw--)

The Prof made an assertion without any basis in fact. Now you have sworn to it. It is still an assertion without any basis in fact. She was a democrat, democrats donate to the DNC. For that you may burn her at the stake, but nor for supporting Dukakis without evidence of same. For all we know she voted for Bush 41.

At any rate, I her ideology is really a side issue. Fact is, no nominee so utterly lacking in competence should ever be nominated, regarless of her ideology.

You are probably incompetent to judge her competence. I'm awaiting your resume.

Ideology is no substitute for competence.

Words to live by. Now if you would just prove that she is either an ideologue or incompetent you might have something. But right now, you've got nothing but innuendo and bs.
