“HOWEVER we can’t ignore the likelihood that the next president of the US will appoint anywheres from ONE to THREE Justices of the Supreme Court.”

If you think Romney will pick a ‘conservative’ for SCOTUS, you’ve got another ‘think’ coming.

“Governor Mitt Romney, who touts his conservative credentials to out-of-state Republicans, has passed over GOP lawyers for three-quarters (75%) of the 36 judicial vacancies he has faced, instead tapping registered Democrats or independents – including two gay lawyers who have supported expanded same-sex rights.”

I do think that Mitt will appoint conservative judges and justices...he knows which way the political winds are blowing...as to his everyday agenda..his programs...the GOP will win the Senate, and the Senate GOP caucus will be more conservative...we keep the House, and whether we gain or lose a few seats..and I thin we will gain a few..the Hosue GOP caucus is definitely going to be far more conservative...redsitricting has seen to that..so I’m optimistic about the legislative agenda..

No, Romney won’t pick conservatives for the highest court, but the alternative is Obama’s 3 new communists and Muslims.

I can see it now “The GOP is chosing to block my nominee who is the first top qualified MUSLIM female to be nominated to the Supreme Court”. GOP caves. We get Sharia law on the SCOTUS.

Now compare that to Romney.

Yes, Romney’s SCOTUS nominees will suck but they will not be the radical communist activists that Obama will chose. Think of 3 more people miles to the left of Bader Ginsberg. There are your new Obama nominees.

I read the link below. Unfortunately, it argues that Romney actually will appoint conservative judges despite his Massachusetts track record. I'm guessing the point can be made with a better link?
