I voted for John McCain in the general election
And John McCain replaced Ruth Bader Ginsburg with some right wing nutjob.

Remember what is at stake after the primary season is over, vote for the Democrat, no matter who wins the nomination.

2. Look, I'm not making threats here...
Edited on Wed Apr-23-08 03:40 PM by Deep13
...but the whole Supreme Court thing has been in the making since Nixon was in office. I am not going to blame myself if what you suggest happens. You can't overlook all the swing-voters who went against their own interests since then and elected Nixon, Reagan, Reagan, Bush Sr., Bush Jr. and Bush Jr. So, people who do vote for McCain, I'm not blaming them alone for that. Even if Bader Ginsberg and Stevens are replaced with moderates (and neither HC nor BO is going to appoint another Brennan--lets be real here) it will still be a very conservative court.

The thing that weighs on my mind is the economic disaster that this country is sliding into while Congress watches and applauds. I see it thus: HRC will begin steps to correct it, McC will make it alot worse, and Obama is an unknown.

3. SCOTUS SCOTUS SCOTUS
is my mantra but I have heard that if ____________ is the nominee, he/she will appoint the same kind of Justices as Bush has because he/she is just a DINO and in the pocket of the Republicans anyway. :eyes:

My head hurts. :banghead:

4. That's a crappy time machine you used to go to November.
Made you vote Republican.

Faulty flux-capacitor? ;-)
