While it may have gotten W elected, it will ultimately destroy the Republican party
Pandering to these zealots will eventually divide Republicans enough between the fiscal conservatives and social moderates and the religious faction to the point where they'll eventually never win at the national level.
Got to love the radical wing of the party calling Roberts a liberal. To these hardliners Hitler would be "too soft" to lead...LOL.
Conservative Group to Oppose John Roberts By JESSE J. HOLLAND, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - A conservative group in Virginia said Tuesday it was withdrawing its support for Supreme Court nominee John Roberts' confirmation because of his work helping overturn a Colorado referendum on gays.
The group, Public Advocate of the United States, is one of the first conservative organizations to announce anything but support for the judge
Eugene Delgaudio, the president of the group, said in an interview that he hopes his stance will prod others.
"I know that others feel the same way. I know they believe as I do. They're just not going to act," the 50-year-old Northern Virginia man said. "But once I've done it, then they can't claim that no one's opposing Roberts."
"We can't take our limited resources and put it toward a candidate who is not a strict constructionist when we were told he is," Delgaudio said.
