FOR ALITO, IT'S FIFTY FIVE MINUS THREE

Alito: one thing is dead certain, this nomination has fixed all the leaks in the boat called Conservatism. But we should all remember the RINOs who will find ways to jump once and for all. Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, and Lincoln Chaffee. Chaffee has already considered jumping to the Democrats, and publicly said so right after the last election; he refused to vote for Bush in the presidential election; and he issued a statement questioning Alito's abortion opinions. Snowe, in a typically gutless statement, said she will "evalutate" his record. Collins, the supreme RINO who got that pathetic Myers woman through her committee, has said zilch.

Meanwhile, the Left is launching a stealth anti-Christian and anti-Catholic campain by reminding everyone that Alito will mean there will be five Catholics on the court. CBS dot com assured one and all that the "foaming at the mouth" Conservatives supports Alito.

So stay tuned. Fifty Five minus three still leaves 52, and my bet is that if the "Mob of Three" see they can't block the nomination they will support it, although Chaffee is really really a left Democrat.
