yeah dogg i read that article a while ago, it basically doesn't say anything other than "trust me, i know her and she's gonna be great". the whole thing about her being able to sway conservatives based on the fact that she hired some white dudes at harvard is some wishful thinking BS imho - it's actually the opposite of what we want, which is someone who can make conservatives see it our way, rather than meeting them halfway, which is the best we can say about hiring a bunch of conservatives. what is the point of forging consensus with conervatives if the consensus isn't on our side?

so you want compromises where the other side suddenly agrees with you 100%

well I mean I think the point of forging consensus w/conservatives is that one actually agrees with them generally about most stuff, if we're being honest

i mean that entire artice iirc goes on about how awesome kagan is without describing a single view she holds, other than that she's a "progressive". alright, if you say so, lawrence lessig.

xp no you retard, i don't want compromises at all. i want someone who has a record as being on the right side, and persuading conservatives to agree with her view of the case, rather than meeting them halfway - something wood has a record of doing, and kagan we're just praying for

and yeah i realize nine times outta ten wood and thomas may have the same view on a case - it's the close ones we're worried about
