Right, and no judge will ïnterpret"the law against Roe v. Wade. You act as if federal judges aren't also politicians who make timely decisions in their own best interest.

Most polling shows that people are opposed to abortion in varying degrees. Those very same people oppose over-turning Roe.

What about the Supreme Court overstepping the Constitution by ruling on what was clearly a state issue?
I love the evasive "state's right" argument. Look, I don'r care to debate Roe, my point was that the court won't overturn Roe, and Kerry essentially prefaced his statement about "conservative judges" with that, be it guised or not.

You mean he'll appoint a qualified judge despite ideology if given the opportunity??? FOR SHAME! He needs to be more partisan, more ideologically driven, no?

It may come as a surprise to you, but Roe v. Wade isn't the only thing the Supreme Court has to worry about over the course of the next 20 to 30 years. You act as if the appointment of "änother Scalia" would result in the national banning of abortions. It won't.

When I refer to his flip flops I'm also referring to his personal statements as well as his votes.
Right, and now you should actually response and defend those claims, rather than just reiterating the statement.

You listed "flip flops" above. Can you respond to that?
