They won't do shit to Alito because it has to get through 60 votes in the Senate and that shit ain't happening.

plenty of times on our side. I agreed with it in most cases, but still.
While a judge should be impartial, is there any doubt about Alitos white wingism? Blaming his wife is crummy.
On the other hand, if this might result in his removal, I sure wouldnt complain.

not come with certain expectation in their behavior?

(9,238 posts)10. Only ten Republican Senate seats are up for election this year
And if you glance at the states they're in, I don't think they're particularly worried.
It's a much tougher year for Democrats in the Senate, but fortunately we seem to be polling pretty ok so far.

(2,332 posts)12. Senate conviction requires 67 votes
The Democrats don't have the votes, and the GQP won't cross over to vote against a fellow traitor.
SoFlaBro
(2,320 posts)14. 67?!? Then that shit is definitely dead on fucking arrival.

(1,737 posts)11. And not just republicons
There are plenty of swing voter types who buy into that line of hypocrisy.
