That said, I still think we have a better chance to get pro-2A judges under Romney than Obama.<br /><br />I'm still surprised that Rick Perry flamed out the way he did. I thought he would have been much stronger.<br /><br />@nguyenhm16: It's part the fault of the candidates, part the fault of the primary structure with all the early primaries (including the weight given Iowa and NH), and part of it is the candidates who decided to sit this one out.John Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03151468462458613615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-33061835850545782782012-05-04T18:26:36.890-04:002012-05-04T18:26:36.890-04:00Well it's the Republicans' fault for not b...Well it's the Republicans' fault for not being able to nominate an electable candidate in an age where they have the upper hand politically.nguyenhm16https://www.blogger.com/profile/05802312197132931711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-11073918923542670252012-05-04T17:37:41.328-04:002012-05-04T17:37:41.328-04:00From: http://gopprimary2012.com/a-look-at-romneys-...From: http://gopprimary2012.com/a-look-at-romneys-judicial-philosophy-conservative-reform-in-the-most-liberal-state/<br /><br />Romney’s Judicial Appointments<br /><br />In 2005, The Boston Globe ran a story on Romney’s judicial appointments. The article stated:<br /><br />Governor Mitt Romney, who touts his conservative credentials to out-of-state Republicans, has passed over GOP lawyers for three-quarters (75%) of the 36 judicial vacancies he has faced, instead tapping registered Democrats or independents – including two gay lawyers who have supported expanded same-sex rights.<br /><br />Of the 36 people Romney named to be judges or clerk magistrates, 23 are either registered Democrats or unenrolled voters who have made multiple contributions to Democratic politicians or who voted in Democratic primaries, state and local records show. In all, he has nominated nine registered Republicans, 13 unenrolled voters, and 14 registered Democrats.Knitebanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12561002953208884054noreply@blogger.com
