21. No. That's not the issue.
Will the Democrats fight to get their judges nominated and overly conservative judges blocked? That's the issue.

Look at the way the Republicans were able to defeat so many of Clinton's appointments in committee. It's disgusting and partisan, but they were willing to fight for it and they got their way. Our Dems in comparison bow to Bush's will and aren't willing to fight, and Bush gets his nominees into positions of power.

Promising the Dems your support without demanding a backbone is not going to change anything.
