They always say, "It's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game."
I think that it's a good move to come out so strong against Alito, when Alito is on the bench, and not only overturns wade, but other civil rights, and the people get pissed off, there will be a section of senators that voted against alito, and those that tried to filibuster, that should ultimately profit in votes.
Could it have been better planned? Who knows? The Democratic party has always had many voices, and I prefer a party that doesn't stick together all the time, over a party that follows their leader no matter the circumstances.
But, I am still in the field of conspiracy, I have alwasy felt that these 2 parties collude with each other, and that with some election reform we could get a good strong 3rd party in the race, and maybe people from all parties would actually start to buckle their own boots with their own hands.
