Would you rather go 1 for 2 or 0 for 2 on Supreme Court nominees?

That's the real question isn't it? I asked earlier on this thread so far without an answer: What makes anyone believe Rudy will even go for even one conservative for SCOTUS?

As for myself, I don't think he would go for any conservatives based upon his positions on abortion, gun control, gay marriage, etc. Those positions do not mesh with an "original constuctionist" interpretation of our Constitution.

I can tell you for sure that Giuliani’s appointees will be less liberal than any of Hillary!’s. Hillary!’s appointees will be just like her husband’s - another Ginsberg and another Breyer. 0 for 2. No thanks.

At least Giuliani might rely on folks like Ted Olsen to help him make nominations, and most nominees will likely be Republicans, making it more likely that they will be strict constructionists. Hillary! will not.

If (as most of us hope) Fred Thompson enters the race and wins the primary, we ultimately might not need to have this conversation.

To tell the truth, if it’s Rudy vs Hillary, I may well vote for a 3rd party and pray that Rudy wins anyway.

If the Rudy supporters are correct, they won’t need my vote so I’ll be free to vote my conscience.

If they are wrong, they’ll look like fools.
