The five regional spots target senators who are considered potential swing votes: Sens. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska., Doug Jones, D-Ala., Joe Donnelly, D-Ind., Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D.

The liberal/conservative arguments are political theater, and the REAL issue is originalism.
If an originalist analysis of the Constitution viz a liberal issue before the court supports the liberals' view, then that view should prevail. Don't count on that happening very often, but the issue isn't liberal v. conservative, it is statists v. the Constitution. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
