"We can't afford to see the court's swing vote, Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, replaced with a far-right ideologue like Samuel Alito."

Maybe the Rats should just accept the fact that they haven''t controlled the House since 1994 or the Senate for that matter. Even after the 2000 election more Republicans were elected. It was Jeffords who then switched parties. But the point is the voters elected more Republicans. They did again in 2002 and in 2004. And since the Rats keep bringing up the fact that a vote for the Pubbies would mean nasty things for the courts and the people keep voting for the Pubbies anyway, maybe they are saying, "Yes we know and that's the way we want it."
