Since I don't know who we is (another anonymous guest), I'm not sure I owe an answer to such a baited question.
But I'll answer anyway.
Arlen is not my kind of Republican; it would be inconsistent of me to say otherwise.
He was wrong on Bork, but when it came to Thomas, Roberts, and Alito, he did the right thing.
The 28 year veteran has been right on gun control (against), but wrong on immigration, wiretapping (though ultimately he voted, rightly, for the 2008 amendment), and the bailout.
But the spy-gate silliness, opposition to pro-growth issues, and his support of pro-choice and LGBT issues makes it tough for me to support him.
Ultimately, how he deals with the Obama administration may be the determining factor for my support/opposition.
One thing about Arlen, he wins when Republicans don't.
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. Thomas Jefferson

Does this mean we're not supporting Arlen in 2010?
