You can sink Obama's "judgment" as well as show the nation you're looking out for them.<br /><br />More to the point, what if you don't fight and some scurrilous detail surfaces when it's too late? Then the Repubs will look <I>particularly</I> incompetent. Every passing day on this shows me that there is meat here to be eaten.The Mega Independenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02965071831760378695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6140728505984584609.post-63671635303285867832009-05-28T10:18:45.175-04:002009-05-28T10:18:45.175-04:00Nobody likes a good dirty fight as much as I do (l...Nobody likes a good dirty fight as much as I do (literally and figuratively) but I just don't see this one having any upside in an "energize the base" or any beneficial way to the GOP, really.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong, I hate a lot of things about this nomination, her views on affirmative action, the acceptance of legislating from the bench, etc...I think she's a horrible choice at this point. If those are the points that are fought on, I'm all for it, but they will lose. At that point we have to hope for a 2010 turnaround of some type to fight the next, certainly more liberal appointment down the road.Mulehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08218952387333205313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6140728505984584609.post-66245643192797131072009-05-27T15:55:16.447-04:002009-05-27T15:55:16.447-04:00I disagree, Muley.

You don't fight based on whether it's winnable in terms of confirming or not confirming. <br /><br />You fight by taking on the people around Obama the same way the libs took on the people around Bush when he was reasonably untouchable after 9/11.<br /><br />You fight because Sotomayor actually is a racist and it needs to be brought into the light. Letting things go, taking the high road, saving your energy, it's all garbage in this climate. The libs fight every little thing like terriers and we need to be the same way. Raise questions. Smack hard.
