Buckle in.
Sandra Day O'Connor announces retirement.
On the plus side: No more "Sandy Says" laws.
On the minus side: Do I even need to mention it?
Update: Please check out Bill Scher's post about this from a couple of months ago:
Keep in mind that in the first 24 hours after any nomination, the whole ballgame will be whether or not the GOP can successfully portray the pick as a “mainstream conservative.”
It will be our job in those 24 hours – on the blogs, on talk radio, in letters to the editor -- to argue that the views of him or her are far too extreme and harmful to Americans to merit a lifetime appointment.
Bill has some ideas about how to do that, and suggests that we begin researching the potential nominees now to get ready.

I think you need to re-examine your idea of mainstream.
For evidence, I offer all the voters.

A vast majority of whom support the nomination of a justice who will uphold Roe.
They haven't even talked about a replacement yet. The true colors of the patriot once again shine bright. Luke, I hope you don't consider yourself Mainstream because I would argue that you are the answer to the far rights rancid puke. Us mainstreamers wish you goofballs from both sides would shut the Fuck up.
