And it is clearly understood by our society that if it elects President Obama or President Bush, that the seats are going to be packed with judges who reflect their philosophies.  You tacitly underline that at the outset of your second paragraph amigo.

I'll bet you a donut that given this situation to observe -- in both its theoretical and in its practical lights -- that the Founding Fathers would want the will of the people reflected at this tipping point in American history.

Yes indeed Obama was elected.  As was the Republican Senate.  Putting my independent hat on, what the American people seem to have wanted lately was a check on extremism.

But, agreed, the obstructionism (on both sides) is getting ugly lately.  Which reflects the state of our rhetoric and our nation, in my humble opinion.

Thanks for the remarks Terry :- )
