Senator Clinton Wrong for Opposing Alito

Despite the opposition of the Senate Democrats, Judge Samuel Alito was sworn in as the nation's 110th Supreme Court justice Tuesday after being confirmed by the Senate by a vote of 58-42.
Senator Clinton was one of those opposing his nomination, and John Spencer criticized her for her stance late last week:

"Predictably Senator Clinton has prejudged this qualified nominee to curry favor with radical left wing attack groups such as MoveOn.org. Senator Clinton is applying a litmus test on a single issue with a standard she can't be sure of – what about all her supposedly centrist quotes on abortion? It is clear that once again Senator Clinton is putting presidential politics before principles. Once again Senator Clinton has exposed herself as a phony."

Everybody's Beatable

In a recent interview, John was asked if Senator Clinton can be defeated in the November election.
He said, "Everybody's beatable," and he has proven that he is the one to do it.

He pointed out that President George H.W. Bush was the most popular president in U.S. history in 1991, one year before losing his bid for re-election "ironically, to Mrs. Clinton's husband."
