Ok. You convinced me! This election is very much about the Supreme Court.
Thanks!
BTTT
I don’t see a supermajority for the Democrats, even in my worst nightmares. I’m expecting them to pick up 5, maybe 6 seats. But they’ll lose one when they boot Lieberman from their caucus. Congress is harder, maybe a pickup of 12 to 15 at the outside. All depends on how the Democrats who won traditionally Republican seats in 2006 do in their first run for reelection.

Thank YOU!
Thanx for the pix.
“I don’t see a supermajority for the Democrats, even in my worst nightmares.”
I hope you’re correct, but I don’t leave anything to chance. This is too important.
Also, my goals are higher than simply stopping the Dems from becoming the supermajority - I’m aiming for the Republican U.S. senators to become the majority again.
If the Republican U.S. senators become the majority again, they will regain control of the Judicial Committee, and then more conservative nominees will be allowed to the floor for an up or down vote.
It won't happen this year.
“It won’t happen this year.”
I know it’s a long shot, but it is possible.
But in any event, let’s work hard so that the Dems don’t get that supermajority. Also, let’s work toward gaining some Senatorial seats this election, so that the Republicans will have a better chance at a majority after the 2010 election, so they get the Judiciary committee again.
Also, any strong motivation to go to the polls on Election Day to vote for ANY Republican gets Republicans to vote for other Republicans while they’re there.
Let’s not forget the Republican U.S. senators on Nov. 4 bump!
If we do, the Senate will be filibuster proof.
