having said that I hope you are right.
I cant help but think of what newt the prick gingrich said, if they dont get him on the court now they will NEVER get someone like him on there
lets hope there are 3 republicans on earth who are not total filth...
BTW the reason I am always so negative is to make the POINT that NONE of this had to happen but for the whining about you know who, who btw was on Murphy Brown last night AWESOME
