Here's a key quote:
If the President abuses his power and nominates someone who threatens to roll back the rights and freedoms of the American people, then the American people will insist that we oppose that nominee and we intend to do so.
In other words, if the President dares to nominate somebody Ted Kennedy and his cronies don't like it will be an abuse of the President's power.
Right. Gotcha Ted. Thanks for the input.
If anyone was harboring any hope for reasoned debate over the new Supreme Court Justice I think its pretty safe to throw it out the window right now. The Democrats' idea of an unqualified candidate is anybody they disagree with politically. Or, in other words, anyone the President is likely to nominate.
