As for Webb, he went down still further in my estimation...if that was possible.

Dear MadIvan,
Messrs. Casey and Tester have six years before standing for election again. They'll vote against pro-life judges for four years, make a couple of token pro-life votes during that time, and then mind their manners carefully for a couple of years.
By then, Mr. Bush will be long-forgotten, along with any threats to hold their feet to the fire come re-election.
Although I understood the frustration of many conservatives who didn't want to vote for folks like Messrs. Allen, Talent, and Santorum, nonetheless, the effect of their abandonment by conservatives (in some cases, a just reward for their abandonment OF conservatives) is that conservative causes will suffer tremendously.
That's why I overcame the stench of folks like RINO Gov. Ehrlich of Maryland, and voted a straight Republican party line.
But hey, that's just me.

Mad I don't think the dems are going to permit any kind of votes on life issues. That way they dont force the moderates to vote one way or another. If Casey was his old man, he would be a sure bet to be pro life. I am not so sure of him.
