I hope you don’t sit it out. Folks who (understandably!) could not vote for Bush 41 in ‘92 gave us Clinton, and Justices Breyer and Ginsburg.
Folks who understandably could not vote for McClown may have given us Justices Kagan and Sotomayor.
I’m voting for whomever can stop more liberal Justices. Hoping (relatively speaking at this point) it’s Perry, but yeah, I’ll vote for Willard if it comes to that. For the Court.
George W Bush tried to give us a liberal judge on SCOTUS too, remember that? The uproar from conservatives was the only thing that stopped it.
Romney or Newt can’t even be trusted to give us conservative judges.
“I’m voting for whomever can stop more liberal Justices. Hoping (relatively speaking at this point) it’s Perry, but yeah, I’ll vote for Willard if it comes to that. For the Court.”
Which illustrates that the judiciary has become entirely too powerful. The Founders erred terribly with respect to the federal judiciary, which has been embezzling power since 1803.
I will NEVER sit it out. Sitters have contributed to the dilemma we now face. It’s shameful and I second everything you said.
