Casey, Webb, Ford & Tester Agree To Schumer Filibuster Pact

Posted on November 4, 2006

For those involved in GOP-GOTV, it is very important to know the rumors on John Paul Stevens:

For the past several weeks, there has been a rumor circulating among high-level officials in Washington, D.C., that a member of the U.S. Supreme Court has received grave medical news and will announce his or her retirement by year’s end.

Then the GOP-GOTV dynamite needs to get to work. And just what would these “moderate democrat” Senator wannabes do if elected:

Schumer is reported to have assured Democrats that Bob Casey Jr. — despite running as a moderate Senate candidate — would be supportive of Democratic efforts to block constitutionalist judicial nominees. “There’s no worry on judges,” said Schumer. “And judges is the whole ball of wax.” Other supposedly centrist Democratic candidates including Harold Ford Jr. (Tenn.), Jon Tester (Mont.) and Jim Webb (Va.) have refused to rule out filibusters against judicial nominees.

Please spread the word!!! Get signed up and start making calls to GOTV!

This week in Indiana, Montana, and Nevada, President Bush raised judges as a key reason to elect Republicans to the Senate. By all accounts, it has been and continues to be a favorite applause line among Republican crowds. Judicial confirmations were key to tight Senate races in 2002 and 2004. Conservatives should not forget the issue this Election Day, when the victory of a generation may be at last within their grasp.

Rumors, but the guy does have to retire eventually. He’s four hundred thirty six years old. He attended Yoda’s bar mitzvah.

Bloggers are already aware that many of these so called moderates are not moderates. The word needs to be spread to other people who not search for sound and valid opinions. This rumor seems suspicious as it comes just before an election but still vote.
