Default Will of the People 1 win, 1 loss

Why is it that when a judge is nominated by a President who won his
election by a huge landslide, you consider it a loss for the "will of
the people?" If he had nominated a right-winger, you probably would
have been happy, but THAT would have been going against the will of
the people.

The election was over in November. Get over it.


2008 Presidential election Obama
52.9% 45.7%

1996 Presidential election Clinton
49.2% 40.7%

1984 Presidential election Reagan
58.8% 40.6%

Reagan was a landslide. Obama did pretty good. Clinton did better than Obama. Obama's
victory was not a 'huge landslide'.
