I'm not so sure about that. Again, back to my seesaw. The GOP have viewed the court as important for the last 40 years (since Roe v Wade) and they now put elephants on their side of the seesaw, with support from their unified base. The Dems can scream all they want and even expand the court to 11, but if they put moderates on the court, like Kagan, with those two extra seats, will it matter? For example, you put a democrat judge on there who's wishy-washy on Medicare For All, then what's the point? You need to move left and put bomb-throwers on the court to combat the elephants. It’s long past time for the Dems to use hardball tactics rather than appealing to precedent, consistency or Mitt Romney’s conscience.
