So, John Kerry is calling for a filibuster of Alito. I don’t speak for the whole Democratic party, but I have a feeling there are a lot of liberal Democrats (sometimes) out there like me. So I’d just like to say for the record:
John, we barely supported you then, and we sure wish you would just go away. We need new, fresh leadership with genuine ideas to turn around a party in crisis, not rabble rousing suicide missions that won’t accomplish anything of value. You’re wasting political capital. Challenge Bush on breaking Federal Law, find an issue that will stick and that won’t be at best a waste of time and energy and at worst a galvanizing event for the Republicans. Seriously: please, shut up.
