The replacement Obama picks will make us long for the days of Souter. Even Clintoon had to deal with a functional group of Senate Republicans. Obama will be able to put anyone through. And looking at Obama’s policies thus far, it is clear that Obama lives about as far left as anyone possibly can, so expect the Souter replacement to be out there also.
Y’know, I was thinking about this yesterday, but you know who is very capable of causing trouble for the Dems; Good Ole Senator Byrd.
While the guy is usually in the tank with the Dems, Byrd can be a spoiler on socially conservative issues, including abortion and gay rights. Maybe something worth praying on.
I know in my heart that Bob Casey will roll over and do whatever the Dem leadership asks of him. What a disgrace to his father’s memory.
