“Crooks is retiring. An opportunity to get a conservative that can win a Supreme court seat.”
When I heard this the other morning, I was JUMPING for JOY! We are SO gonna work on replacing him with a ‘human’ Conservative! *WINK*
What a LUCKY BREAK! :)
The lucky break is that the election to replace him is in the spring, when the turnout is much different from the general election in November. Recall that Obama beat Romney by something in the vicinity of 14 pts in 2012. You wouldn’t want to run a conservative candidate for SCOWI on the undercard in the fall.
