We should welcome a filibuster, because that is the only way to get the nuclear option. And the nuclear option, eliminating the judicial filibuster, is the only way we can possibly get a sure fifth vote on the Supreme Court, which would (could) occur when (if) Stevens or Ginsburg retires.

Agreed. This is no time to nominate a "moderate." Keep our eyes on the prize. Getting more rock-ribbed conservatives on the Supreme Court is vital. Stay consistent: No Moderates!.

Rudy Guiliani has my endorsement for President in '08 if he takes the No Moderates pledge. He can win the election. Folks say he's not far enough to the right to win the nomination, but let him sign The Pledge and we will see.

The Dems will wheel them(Ginsberg, Stevens) in on life-support... until Bush leaves office. Should they drop dead... they'll hire imposters.
