If you think the Rinos won't use the leverage you handed to them you are in for a real awakening, but you have forced the rest of us to suffer with you.. I am not pleased about that at all..

What would you have us do, carlo3b? Would you have us sit down and shut up while a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the nation is made despite our misgivings?

No my friend I do not expect you to sit down or shut up.. I expect you to read the facts and take a page from the play book that worked for us with Roberts.. Most of the folks on this forum would love to have Bush choose any of the judges he has already put on the courts.. He knows this is legacy, why would he throw it away.. Further, as you know, we have a extremely weak position in the Senate, there are 10 Senators that will reject a obvious right-winger.

More than enough of these freaks would pull a Jeffords if Bush tried to shove a conservative firebrand down their throat, which means a Democrat Senate.. Do you think President Bush will have an easier time getting a conservative nominee passed a Leahy lead committee? Get real..
