You can't picture it? I sure can. Let's roll the video:

-----------------------

Gauzy shots of Sandra Day O'Connor, with a woman's voice saying "She was the first woman on the Supreme Court. She pioneered the way for others, like Ruth Bader Ginsburg."

Gauzy shot of Ginsburg with an American flag.

"But now, their accomplishments are threatened by the man who is currently on Pennsylvania Avenue."

Nasty shot of Bush while his statement critical of the decision is played.

"Supreme Court justices can't serve forever."

Shot of Rehnquist looking especially feeble.

"When the next justice is nominated, Bush won't nominate someone like Sandra Day O'Connor"

Shot of O'Connor with a big "X" over her face.

"Instead, we will get nominees like THIS:"

Shots of rejected Appelate Court judges with newspaper clippings labeling them "extreme" and "right-wing."

"Let's keep the progress we have made. Let's have a president who will nominate better candidates. Vote (insert Rat candidate name here) for President."

----------------------

If the democrats can make an issue out of those 16 words in the State of the Union speech, they can make an issue out of a statement attacking O'Connor's decision. This is politics, not the debating society.

Sorry, not going to happen. They will fail on the 16 words, too--Bush's real concern on the foreign policy end is his failure to plan for post-war Iraq.

O'Connor will never be a rallying point for anyone, nor the topic of a Democratic political ad. Anger at her is a much better issue with no negative political consequences, and it would resonate with people, because most people are against racial preferences and sodomy.

Bush doesn't even have to single her out personally--just criticize the court's decisions as "contrary to common sense," "destructive of government by the people" and "contrary to self-rule."
