From a political point of view, the Democrats should hope that Roe v. Wade is overturned. Doing so would return the issue to the State legilslatures and would give them an issue with which to win them more than they would lose. In patricular the Dems would likely gain complete control of the State Houses in Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New York, Oregon, and could pick the lower House in Indiana. The only States where it would be likely to hurt Democratic control or partial control are Montana and North Carolina.
There may be reasons for the Dems to filibuster Bush's nominee, but a narrow litmus test on this issue is not one of them.
