Daschle Backs Roberts

After publishing this post, I'm headed out to go ice-skating in hell. Anyone want to join me?
Here's an article from this morning's Argus Leader. Here's the money quote: "President Bush has produced a nominee that probably qualifies, and I would support him."
The obvious question is this: If Daschle can now support a solid conservative for Supreme Court based on his qualificiations, how can he possibly justify his past opposition to judicial nominees based on ideology.
The answer, of course, is that he can't. Indeed, no one can. And the support from Daschle, Leahy, and other Dems reveals once and for all the folly of their four years of obstruction based on ideology.
This also should send a powerful message to the President that he should feel free to nominate a strong conservative to fill the current vacancy.
