At a guess, 65 to 70 - I voted 65. The Democrats would be insane to fillibuster him because of that marital notification for abortion ruling

Democrats would just show themselves to be totally out of touch with the electorate and rightly so. A husband should be notified (it takes two to conceive a child). Furthermore, it's just common courtesy

Of course, if something about Alito emerges, which makes him totally unsuitable for the position of Associative Justice, then the Democrats would be right to mount a fillibuster

The Democrats are on an upward swing and they'd be insane to jeopardise it by opposing Alito just for the hell of it
