Yeah. Our party needs to look in the mirror and develop some values but if Romney wins we'll be facing an activist conservative bench for the next generation.

We've already seen the damage from citizens united and that was just kind of a bite sized taste of the future served on a toothpick. Maybe it's too late already or maybe not but with three more devout Republicans sitting on the court there is no turning back.
