" ... Up until the last 15 minutes yesterday, 95% of us on the thread were all sweating it, convinced that the Dems were somehow going to pull it off ..."


Sorta ... kinda like the "Hillary can win the presidency" crowd.

Can there really be 95% here that sweat about this? And if so, are they using ouija boards, tea leaves, or reading the New York Times?

No ouija boards, no NY Times... but yes I still "sweat".

Hey, I remember many here said Hillary would never make it to the Senate, but there she is...keeping a low profile but poised and ready to come to the rescue when the people call... I honestly believe the Dem primary will be hers to lose. After all she's their "last great hope". That doesn't mean she'll win the white house, but I've learned to never underestimate the power of the devil. "When good men do nothing..."

So maybe 95% is too high, but it's more than a few that "sweat" the Hillary threat. I for one sweat it because we're still not a level playing field. Hillary (the entire left wing!) can break the rules without accountability (thanks to MSM).

That is what makes this Alito victory so sweet -- we beat them UPHILL! And we are slowly leveling the field. We must continue to pack the courts with conservatives while we can. Then if we can somehow salvage (or replace?) the MSM so more Americans are regularly exposed to the truth -- maybe then we can "relax" and enjoy a government "by the people". Until then we sweat. We do not let our guard down. We do what it takes to rebuild our republic.
