There are apparently some rumblings out there that Bush will make blocked federal judges campaign issues.  I personally have no problem with that - the obstructionist card was played quite well against us in the 1996 election - but whether it's an effective issue is another matter entirely.  In the grand scheme of things, from the economy, to the War on Terror, to government subsidized health care, there is little room and understanding in the electorate for the health of the judiciary.
