Honestly, is anybody really going to hand the keys to Republicans in the next election? I mean, there really has to be some mental gymnastics to get you there at this point, isn't there? (I say this with relatives who are exactly those people, so it's sort of a joke...and yet...)

Don't call it "expanding" SCOTUS. And, for God's sake, don't call it "court-packing." Call it **right-sizing** the Court. (There are 13 circuits now -- not the 9 circuits there were when it was set at 9 justices 157 effing yrs ago!) Or call it *modernizing* the Court. Thank you.
