Is it just me, or is this whole Schiavo thing really just about moving pawns on the board in preparation for Rehnquist's retirement? The Republicans (and many Dems) were completely out of step with the American public on this issue. Seems like the smart play would be for the Dems to make the point - over and over and over again - that that moderate judiciary was the only thing left that was powerful enough to represent and protect the public will, and that that is why the public should oppose "going nuclear".
