To: Amendment10

A lot of GOP Senators let us down on that one.
Don Nickles, Robert C. Smith, and Jesse Helms were the only ones who voted against Ginsburg.

Santorum was a Senator then. Curious. How did he vote?

And I wonder how Romney would have voted if he was a Senator at that time.

Hmmm

Romney was only supporting democrats at that time, he later registered republican, and then by the time he was governor he made sure that as many as 1 out of 4 of his judges were actually registered as republicans.

“Willard Mitt Romney donated $250 in 1992 to then-U.S. Rep. Dick Swett’s (D New Hampshire) successful re-election campaign. The one-term congressman served another term before losing to Republican Charles Bass in 1994. Two years later, Swett ran unsuccessfully against Republican Bob Smith for one of the Granite State’s U.S. Senate seats.

In 1992, the former Massachusetts governor and current Republican presidential contender (voted for Tsongas in 1992), also donated $250 to Rep. John J. La Falce (D New York) and $1,000 to Douglas Delano Anderson, an unsuccessful Democratic primary candidate for the U.S. Senate seat held by Utah Republican Jake Garn, who retired that year.

So, between July 1989 and October 1993, Romney exclusively financed these three Democrats.”
