Let me explain how things work. If Kirk wins and the Republicans win the Senate then they get a majority on the Senate Judiciary Committee (which approves judges) and it gets the chairmanship of that committee.
Do you understand how huge that is regarding who gets on the Supreme Court? Regardless of whether both of them are pro-abortion, it DOES make a difference who wins.
It certainly makes a difference who wins. And a Giannoulias win serves movement purposes as a Kirk win cannot and will not. Also, bear in mind that when it comes to US Attorneys and judges, Kirk would be striving for the appointment of social revolutionaries because to do so is tres chic in Naperville. (Nancyboy to applicant: Do you, the prospective appointee, support interspecies sexual relations with reptiles and space aliens even the ones not named Judy Bahr Toooopinka? If not, what makes a narrow-minded bigot like you think you are qualified to serve on a federal court?) So what if they both want to kill babies, just elect the REPUBLICAN babykiller and get that issue out of politics. The only real issue is how much Inyokern pays in taxes on his marginal income above $250,000, right???
Besides party affiliation, and based soley upon his VOTES and not his WORDS, tell us all how your pet liberal Kirk is different from his opponent in oh say...5 ways.
