Do you think that the Pres. will get anymore appointments to the Court in the next 3 years? And if so can the Republicans hold on to the Senate for in November?
Hey old republic,
Honestly, the only way W gets another appointment is if someone dies or is permanently disabled.
I can't see Stephens or Ginsberg stepping down given the push of the court as of late. It hasn't shifted all the way towards the originalists, but it's closer than what it was.
Can we hold the Senate?? To be seen. Depends on how crazy the liberals become, the price of gas, etc... I think we're in a tighter position than the Dims are in 06, but being the optimist, I say we lose a max of 2 seats (maybe gain one if all falls into place) and hold the Senate. ;) We'll see. I personally don't see how anyone can vote with the left these days, but people are doing it in droves...albeit dwindling droves over the past few years.
Whadda I know, though?
I would say that is our highest priority in the mid terms, followed closely by the House.
I wonder what Karl Rove has up his sleeve?
I read in some silly liberal piece that libs believe all of a sudden a little later this year...Bin Laden is going to show up out of some hole they have been holding him in for just the right press.
This kind of thought is reprehensible.
However, Karl Rove is a master planner...see 2002 and 2004.
I guess it all depends on how good Senator Dole is in recruiting Senate candidates.
The recent news out of West Virginia is the first good news I have seen in awhile.
Anyone have some deep, good reports (a la Human Events) on the open Senate seats?
