What you say makes a lot of sense. I coud never vote anything but Republican because of the numbers. It is just that you would think 55 R's would be enough, but it is not cause some pubs are on the fence. If we gave them 60, there would still be some on the fence and they could still wimp out on us!

That could be.
Or it could be that they're not on the fence and aren't really wimping out. It could be that they mask their mild support for abortion because that is a losing hand, but when it comes right down to it, they actually vote their consciences.
Anyway, we will see soon, because the issue is coming to a head and isn't going to go away. There's no dodge on it. Either the conservatives will take over the bench because the Republicans cleared the way for them, or they won't get on the bench because the Republicans voted to keep the status quo.
