What the anger at McCain should be leading to action is in more focus on the 100 Senators, and especially those up for re-election this year, and most especially on the Dems.

Neither McCain nor Obama is really a Super Savior, and the many other Congress members are more important than the difference between McCain and other Reps (including Ron Paul, on judges).

I’m not convinced the Gang of 14 was so bad, in that it did get Roberts & Alito confirmed. It wasn’t great, how many other judges are still waiting?

Of course, I haven’t yet seen the Professor note a case where he thinks Miers would have voted differently than Alito. As an anti-elitist, I kind of liked Miers not being a judge.

Many Rep elitists are also anti-Huckabee. But majority pro-Christisn pro-life places are the best hope to get Senators who are pro-life judges. And importance the good Professor, a pretty strong anti-Huck voice, seems to always overlook.
