30. If you think fighting Alito is "for fights sake" we have nothing in common
Sure, let's send up the white flag again! Fighting wouldn't be prudent.

Maybe someday in the future we'll fight, just not now. I can't tell you how many times I've heard that nonsense.

You miss the point: WE DON'T WIN NATIONAL ELECTIONS BECAUSE WE DON'T EVER FIGHT. The Repugs ALWAYS fight, even when it is unpopular. That's why a majority trust them on defense and not us. That's why a majority see us as flip-floppers.

Alito should be fought to the full extent of our ability (win or lose) because it is the right thing to do. It will not cost us a single vote and may actually improve our base.
