Majority of Voters Want Up-Or-Down Vote on Judicial Nominees, Poll Shows

(CNSNews.com) - A new poll shows an "overwhelming majority" of Americans favor an up-or-down vote on the floor of the Senate on judicial nominees.

The survey, conducted by the Judicial Confirmation Network, concluded that 67 percent of voters agree that politics should be taken out of the courts and out of the confirmation process.

"It is abundantly clear that the American people are tired of the partisan, political maneuvering and the unwarranted character assassinations against qualified candidates for the federal bench," said Wendy Long, counsel to the Judicial Confirmation Network, in a press release.

Eighty-two percent of voters agree that "if a nominee for any federal judgeship is well-qualified, he or she deserves an up or down vote on the floor of the Senate," the poll found.

The only thing saving Democrats from themselves is the complete ineptitude of congressional Republicans. If the Republicans had any sense, they would listen to me and give the Democrats enough rope to hang themselves.

The Dems are getting off easy on this one.
