The incredible thing about O’Donnell and her handlers’ incompetence, is that they could always score cheap points by identifying the Dred Scott case or Plessy v Ferguson as examples where the Supreme Court got it just plain wrong. Unless, of course, they think those decisions were correctly decided…

Bush once brought up Dredd Scott in exactly that situation, IIRC. I think it’s actually a case that anti-abortion activists find significant. Perfect for her.

Of course, Bush used it, and she did not, because Bush is smarter than she is, and also had Condi Rice preparing him for this kind of thing.
