You think that judges are acting on their own personal ideologies? How do you explain that when so many -- perhaps a majority -- of the federal judges have been appointed by the Reagan and Bush I administrations?
If that's really true, then why are the Democrats going to the mattresses to prevent the ultimate horror of Bush actually accomplishing an appointment for judges that might be in line for the Supreme Court?
Obviously, ideology is ALL-important in this situation, which implies that it probably has something to do with how politicians expect court decisions to be made.
I would also lay odds that you would not be hearing much noise from all those "balance of power" people if the Executive, Legislative and Judicary branch were all overwhemingly Democratic.
