Do you honestly believe that wooing diehard republicans is the way to get anything done? It's a fundamental betrayal to vote to allow that judge, full stop. Do you really believe that when voting time comes, the dems they still depend on are just going to forget and roll over?
Moral conviction means taking a risky road sometimes. Screw doing the wrong thing for strategy, that is THE problem with the democratic party, and if you don't see that this is a small example of the larger problem you yourself admitted they have, I don't know what to say except that this is why independents aren't passionate about the democratic party. They don't stick to their guns like the republicans do. If they make this vote, they don't deserve to stay in power. Full stop. That's it.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
