sorry but "admiring" someone doesn't translate into a nomination

Ginsburg admired Scalia as a charming person who likes opera and argued well. Again, Hillary has repeatedly stated she would appoint justices in the ginsburg mold.

What was she going to say - she doesn't respect her? She's trying to win an election.

In fact, I'm sure EVERY person she nominated for the court would support it.

That's a no go for me.

without a hard pro-choice position, it's a double whammy for me.

In my local Sanders office, most people aren't intimidated by the SC threats - the majority of the volunteers and staff believe she's a corporatist moderate and wouldn't actually make good SC nominations at all

Wall Street. Big Pharma. Big Ag. Corporate media. And, of course, the MIC.

If Bernie wins, he'll only be indebted to the American people.
Which is just as it should be.

That is what democracy is supposed to look like.
