2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumSQUIRREL!!11!1
Scalia's passing is a giant squirrel, it might not be one that was manufactured but it will be used by anyone with a sly agenda to slip stuff under the radar while the M$M predictably chases the bright and shiny squirrel.
Keep your eye on the ball, ladies and germs, Scalia is just a distraction at this point.

Not that I needed to be reminded...but it is YUGE...
Anyone arguing to the contrary may not have faith in their candidate? I do in them both.

(31,170 posts)5. Changng the balance on SCOTUS is not a distraction.
Perhaps I have more faith in your candidate than you do...I think they could both win.
