actually, IMHO, the reason that Chuckie's waaaaaaay out front and over the top on this is that it's the beginning of his 2004 re-election campaign..... Won't he need Hispanic votes in that election?

What about removing CLINTON Chuckie?

Yep, but...the Dem party in NY is in chaos..they outnumber the GOP by several million, let they've lost all the recent big major statewide races....and NYC, one of the more liberal cities in the country, keeps electing GOP mayors....actually, the black and the Hispanics are starting to bump heads over power and patronage, and both are trying to squeeze out the remaining Jewish pols....( hear that Chuckie)....there were some bitter primary races in the last two elections....the old line black pols..Rangel, Dinkens, et al...they're on the decline, and the new group of Dem political leaders are mainly Hispanic..and of course, are we really sure if Hillary likes the idea of having Chuckie around?..Hmmmm...after all...NY's "senior" senator sounds sooooooo much better than "junior" senator...Chuckie might, just might, be the upcoming next victim of being a friend of the Clintons.....if he's gone....they absolutely control the Dem party in the State...and can annoint the next governor nominee

MALDEF, that bastion of Latino Victimhood, has come out against Estrada (shades of the blacks against Thomas).
See today's LAT Op Ed section (it is pointless to post a link -- it's a site that needs registration).
Victimhood politics are by definition exclusionary and thus disqualifies anyone for truly higher judgeships (I have no explanation for the 9th Circuit). Only level-headed people with the ability to reason can make it this far, but level-headed people oppose holding peopledown with victimhood politics.
This this debacle.
