28. Playing ball
Let's use this analogy....

A weaker sports team playing a stronger team
decides they'll save their energy for the next game
and team...allegedly even stronger, thus losing
the game.

Just because Roberts is well-educated and doesn't
froth at the mouth is not a reason to put him in
a lifetime position on the highest court in the country.
Senate Democrats didn't even try on this candidate,
even with many civil rights groups doing the research
and handing it to them; thousands of calls and signatures
and testimony in opposition of his getting this job.

I'm tired and frankly fed up with supporting Democrats
who vote their conscience and not with their brains
and the evidence and frankly I won't with money, time
or in writing.

If they can't vote for the right thing en bloc, I won't support them en bloc.
