Thats great. Just back away, 'cause the mean old democrats might make things messy. Note to you Ann bashers, the Repblican party won the election and they NEED TO ACT LIKE IT!
I swear, you people are so weak kneed its pathetic. Put a f*%$ing Conservative out there so everyone can see how pathetic the liberal democrats are and finish them off already!
Yes! Granny for SCJ!! I'll bet she bakes a mean cake.
And that's a bad thing how?
If anything it could put some meat on Coulter's bones.
Now, follow me with this, for a moment. The following senators will NOT vote for a hard-line conservative, especially if they are suspicious that the person might be adamantly pro-life: Snowe, Collins, Chaffee.
Subtract those 3, and you are at 52-48. Now we have to add the cowards who don't vote with us when the press gets mad: Voinovich and DeWine.
Subtract those 2, and you are at 50-50.
Now, subtract the "mavericks" from our side, Hagel and McCain, and you have 48-52, with us losing the nomination.
I don't have a hard time at all envisioning this happening, particularly since conservative pundits did their best to help bring Bush's poll numbers down by trashing him on his Katrina response for two solid weeks.
I haven't even factored in Graham, Spector, and Lugar, whose votes are hard to predict.
Why do you think the Presidient should send up a nominee who would run into this situation? Explain how you are going to get Snowe, Voinovich, and the rest to vote for a nominee like Janice Rogers Brown. In my opinion, it won't happen.
There is a lack of spine, but it is in the Senate.
If you want to look for a lack of spine, you only have to look at the Senate. Our side is filled with spineless idiots who will do anything to undermine this President, all for the sake of face time in the media. Then the knotheads here on FR will come out and blame Bush for all of it. You want him to run Janice Rogers Brown again? Fine. Just don't stew in your juices when more than a dozen Republicans vote her down because she's "outside the mainstream". I'm sick of the false criticism. SICK OF IT. Savvy?
