And the winner is...

John Cole correctly analyzes the position of Harry Reid and finds it wanting. Excerpt:


Judge Roberts is no fire-breathing ideologue, and if the Democrats do everything they can to block his nomination, and mount a strident and contentious opposition, they are sealing their own fates. If someone like Roberts is going to get 30-40 votes against from Democrats, I see no reason why Bush doesn’t appoint a fire-breathing ideologue. Let ‘em filibuster.

If Roberts is unacceptable, the simple fact is Democrats canÂ’t deal with a Republican appointee. Period.

I think that he's onto something here.

1 did you see the LA dog trainer endorsement of Roberts? Kind of comes to the same conclusion.... Patterico and the Moderate Voice both had interesting thoughts about it.
