6. At least luck is on the Democrats' side

Per the article, the committee that will review the issue of seating Woodward is 5 Democrats/4 Republicans with a Democrat as Chair. Members names drawn out of a hat! LOL (good thing it wasn't an electronic vote!)

Their 'constitutional scholar' sure is a piece of work though...

"However, Paul Salamanca, a constitutional law professor at the University of Kentucky who also serves as Williams' lawyer, argued that the Senate has sole jurisdiction to decide who serves."

I guess that means they don't even need to hold elections anymore. :eyes: Straight from one of those damn liberal intellectual types. /sarcasm
