Democrats said the lesson of the Alito hearings was that this White House could put on the bench almost any qualified candidate, even one whom Democrats consider to be ideologically out of step with the country.

What an idiotic statement.

Given the last few election cycles the dems should be wondering if they are the ones that are ideologically out of step with the country.

[Emmett McCarthy]

Election results are obvious, but Dems know that once they lose control over the courts, their agenda can not only be stopped but actually reversed. The smell of dead Democrats is the whiff of victory.

[Farmer Dean]

The White House should be able to put ANY qualified candidate it wants on the court.

Is there something wrong with putting a qualified candidate on the court?
