103. I grasp the concept
Edited on Thu Jul-21-05 09:53 AM by imenja
You somehow think there is something politically savvy in this, that it would make good media spin. My point is that it is quite the opposite and will make anyone who advances the argument look idiotic. How could that be irrelevant? Is your point to oppose the Roberts nomination or discredit the effort to oppose him? This can only accomplish the latter.

The Kerry vote issue worked because he was foolish enough to give them a devastating sound bite. And he never was able to give an explanation of his various votes on the war that was convincing.

You want to find something on Roberts, I suggest you do your homework.
Read the rulings in which he dissented. And if you can't come up with something better than this, you're in big trouble.
