For myself, as a progressive democrat, the prospect of a republican in the oval office is disconcerting, but ultimately it would be a relatively short term for such a GOP presidency.

What is REALLY at stake, however, is the prospect of THREE supreme court judges being appointed in the next couple of years. With the current "stalemate" of the SC 4 to 4 decisions, the possible appointment of 3 new justices may shift the balance to a 6 to 3 majority of more progressive judgments for decades to come.
 
Exactly and with the absolutely ridiculous ruling yesterday by the SCOTUS allowing Unions to collect fees from workers who decide to NOT join the union is baffling. Ginsburg has been an utter disgrace ever since she has been appointed. Sotomayor and Kagan were so unqualified it is criminal.

Yes this election means a lot. If Trump wins it means he will get to appoint a conservative replacement of Scalia and save us from liberal reign of terror. The. Hopefully Ginsburg crocks and we can replace her with someone who respects the constitution and loves this country.

Liberals and progressives will be destroyed once and for all after we pack the court with conservative justices and get back to Constitution based law.

Nitwit, you HAVE HAD a conservative majority for many, many years already....How has that worked out.......LOL

Oh please don't pretend to be a moron you know damn well there's a moderate on the court and iffy justices like John Roberts. Don't worry about it, with 2-3 more conservatives on the court you people are finished. The liberal filth will be eradicated.

Kagan only got the appointment after she called the White House to ask, "How's my favorite Foreign student doing"

Bottom line is this.....the next president will appoint 2 to 3 justices. If Clinton gets in, you know that the SC will turn to more liberal and progressive decisions....If (highly unlikely) Trump gets in, conservatives should keep in mind that Trump's stance of abortion rights, gay/lesbian rights and dislike for Citizen United, will probably ALSO have the SC to be less biased toward right wing causes.......Scalia's reign of terror is over.

Have you googled who Trump's sister is? If not, you should. LOL

That only works if we elect a constitutionalist president. If we elect a rino from ny...

so you are stoked at the idea of the Constitution being completely ignored to the point lawyers no longer have to lie to get bills passed them.

fdr wanted to enlarge the scotus to he could do the same thing.

I sincerely have NO idea of what you're babbling about....
 
Kennedy is no conservative, douche bag.


The usual moronic response.......ONLY ultra-conservatives would call Kennedy "liberal," but he's really center-right.
Would ANY liberal justice have ever voted to appoint Bush.???

Horseshit. He has vote about 50% of the time with the conservative side of the court and 50% with the douche bag side of the court. He's not a conservative.
