Check with the pundits and the bloggers (especially John Fund and Peggy Noonan of the WSJ) who now determine the SCOTUS nominee.

How dare the proles participate in public discourse!

I fear Snowe and Collins may jump ship but we'll see.

We just need a couple more of the gang of seven and we can nuke the filibuster.

Actually, we only need one more (besides Graham)....two will get us to 50.

"Philosophy and views are what matters, not the religion of the person."

So religion has no views, philosophy, or influence on what legal philosophy one is attracted too? I disagree with your statement.

I did support the idea of allowing the Miers hearing to happen and was disgusted by the nastiness of much of the anti-Miers sentiment.

Miers is history - but I was PERSONALLY slammed by Miers proponents, FWIW.

McLame, Chaffee, Warner, Collins and Snowe WILL join him. ... Result: 49-51 against.

Maybe Senator Nelson of Nebraska will vote for.

Interesting, because Fox is owned by a Catholic.

Philadelphia is the common bond of Alito and Spector, iirc.

If he gets confirmed and then ANOTHER SC seat opens can you imagine how nuts the MSM/Dems will go?

"President Bush during the election."


That appears to be a figment of your (and others) imagination.


Perhaps you will produce a url link to validate that?


After many weeks of attempting to confirm this seeming "urban myth" by many here, including the owner of this site, I have yet to see where the President made that statement.

Bork's "borking" eventually gave us Kennedy...not such a win for the conservatives. If Alito isn't put through, the next pick might not be as conservative.

Yeah, but you already predicted that the next pick after Meirs would be a liberal. We said that it would be a conservative. You are now bitter about that fact, and hoping Alito goes down so that you can say you were right in your blind support of Meirs. The worst case scenario here is that we wind up with moderate after the game plays out. You were for a moderate on day one.

Maybe Senator Nelson of Nebraska will vote for.

And the people of Colorado should twist Salazar's arm out of its socket to get him to vote for as well.

Really quite simple. Avoid SMU and suck up to Yale for a start. Up with the Catholics down with the Evangelicals.

Enough with the friggin sour grapes from the Miers crowd. Miers crashing and burning had nothing to do with SMU or being Evangelical. Her 1993 pro-abortion speech was her nail in her coffin. Her stance on being pro-quotas did not help along with a history of donating to Dems. Miers was void of any real conservative credentials. End of discussion. Let's get on with getting the real nominees confirmed.
