As I've said, there is a better way.

Keep in mind that what you are calling moderates are in fact right-wingers:

                                                  Democrats Moderates GOP
<---------------------------------------------------------------------->
   LEFT            Center/Left Center Center/Right         Right

If you have nothing to add but horsesh**t opebo, just go back to your whores.

This compromise was horrendous. The media whores threw away any chance of having a originalist confirmed to replace Rehnquist.

The compromise was inevitable because the strategy was so bad.

There will be no filibustering for the SCOTUS, execpt in "extreme cases."

If that's Robert Bork, okay. If it's Scalia, no real deal has been reached, as the Democrats are just lying.

What in the heck is wrong with Bork? He was a well qualified guy who would have made decisions (for the most part) based on the Constitution. Instead we get stuck with that weasel Kennedy who makes decisions based on international law

Bork was an excellent appointment. By far the most qualified appointment to the SCOTUS in a generation.

That wasn't my point. My point was that they confirmed Scalia, and rejected Bork. Scalia is fine, so if they'll allow a vote on judges like Scalia, that's okay.

What about the Constitution Party? Wink

Actually I know little about them, but I assume they're nearly the same as the GOP.  Like the 'Libertarians'.
