Those in opposing campaigns try to twist history into meaning Cruz pushed for Robers. They fact that he preferred Luttig did not mean he would not support Roberts once Bush nominated him. There was no evidence that he would do what he has done. Lesson: no paper trail can bite both ways. Spend the capital. Fight!!!!!

The left has been deplorable in their tactics, what with Bork and Thomas. The right needs to fight without stooping to that level, but doing everything in their power to get conservatives on the court.

Cruz stated if Jones and Luttig had been on the court instead of Souter and Roberts,

then the marriage laws in every state would still be on the books

and Obamacare would not have been law.

Indications were Roberts would do well. Wasn’t it Ike that regretted nominating Earl Warren? The trouble is the liberal judges do not disappoint. They tow the line.
