Gallup: Very interesting numbers on Alito, filibuster and nuking
Nov. 1, 2005. N=603 adults nationwide. MoE ± 4.

"If you were convinced that Alito would vote to overturn the Roe v. Wade decision, would you, personally, want the Senate to vote to confirm him to the Supreme Court, or not?"

Confirm 37
Not Confirm 53
Unsure 10



"Suppose all or most of the Democrats in the Senate oppose Alito's nomination. Do you think they would be justified or not justified in using Senate procedures, such as the filibuster, to prevent an up-or-down vote on his nomination?"


Justified 50
Not Justified 40
Unsure 10


"If that happens, the Republicans in the Senate would consider changing Senate procedures to eliminate the filibuster on judicial nominations, which would ensure an up-or-down vote on the nomination. Do you think the Republicans in the Senate would be justified or not justified in doing this?"

.

Justified 45
Not Justified 47
Unsure 8

Where's my torch and pitchfork?!? <tongue-in-cheek>

Dammit, it's beyond time for our illustrious "loyal opposition" to STAND for something ... how about THEIR CONSTITUENTS?
