Excuse us, we're too busy rolling over
OK, so Senator Kerry's last minute attempt to organize a filibuster of Samuel Alito's Supreme Court nomination was a little feeble and embarrassing. (NYT) But not as embarrassing as the Democrats' general lack of scrappiness*. We're talking about a lifetime position on the Supreme Court here. But, quoth Harry Reid, "No one can complain on this matter that there hasn't been sufficient time to talk about Judge Alito, pro and con...I hope that this matter will be resolved without too much more talking." Oh, just get it over with.
*Though it must be noted that the Judiciary Committee D's totally kicked ass during the hearings.

What I want to know is who's the brilliant Democratic strategist who decided positioning the Alito vote right before the State of the Union would mean it would get less attention instead of being a quick 1-2 shot of positive attention for Bush?
