Virginia is went rat because of Northen Virginia or “Baja Maryland” as some call it. It started before this year. The state is an unlikely source of “heat” on the issue of judges and Webb would not be likely to respond to it anyway.

Aside from Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Landrieu as well as Pryor and Lincoln from Arkansas are likely targets on the issue of the court.

Also senile Bob Byrd claims to be for constructionist judges. He voted for Alito.

So did Cantwell, from Washington. I'll admit, that was when she had a potentially tough re-election fight on her hands, but there is still an Eastern Washington out there that might put pressure. In any case, if a nominee can be shown to be radical, we'll make sure to get the word out there. The MSM cannot filter it anymore.

I still think that even in the very bluest of states, there are people that can get fired up to oppose ultraliberal judges. It's not like an election, where it's an 'either or' situation, it's an up and down yes and no vote. Liberals have already shown that you don't have to have a reason besides ideology to vote no on a judicial nominee, hopefully Republicans and a few Rats from states with motivated country folk will get that message.
