James Carville Advises Obama: Talk About Tax Returns? Sure, But Health Care Above All

When all else fails, Obamabots yell, "The Supreme Court will be lost!"
The Supreme Court is lost already. Please remember that Scalia and Thomas made it through a Democratically-controlled Judiciary Committee and Senate. And Democrats voted to confirm Alito (58-42) and Roberts (78-22).
There is nothing that Bush-Cheney, and Reagan-Bush for that matter, did that Democrats couldn't have blocked. Democrats signed on to all of it.
Obama's appointments are really nothing to defend. Elena Kagan is the Goldman-Sacks seat, not to mention that she was the 5th vote in rolling back Miranda a few weeks ago. And she joined the conservatives on the Medicaid portion of ACA two weeks ago.
Sotomayor was with the Scalia-Thomas-Alito faction that boycotted the SOTU - Sotomayor was in Guam, addressing a group of students and swearing in new members of the Guam Bar Association, a first for a US Supreme Court Justice (are you kidding, Sonia, missing the most public showing of US democracy and the 3 branches of government by leaving the US for a 5 day trip to Guam?).
If who gets to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg was such a worry, don't you think she would step down now while it's assured a Democratic president would be choosing?
The only solution turning the nation around is ending corporate personhood and publicly financed campaigns. Any politician who isn't making that his first and only priority is corrupt to the bone. Neither party has this on their agenda, much less at the top of their list of things to do.
