Her disappointment was at this one. critical. vote.
She said she hasn't been a big fan of Byrd's- her deal was strictly on a constitutional basis and she incinerated the ****er for even considering voting for Scalito.

I get it perfectly fine, she's the one who didn't seem to get it. She expressed disappointment over Byrd's vote, which is completely asinine when you look at the man who is casting the vote. Of course it's about the long record, the long record serves as the barometer by which a politicians future votes and actions are to be measured by. She also failed to take into consideration the political ramifications for him if he did cast that no vote. The fact that she expressed disappointment over this man's vote, the vote of a man who is up for re-election soon and isn't going to risk being vilified any more by the Republican party that is on the hunt for Dems in his very state, tells me that she's living in a different reality when it comes to the Democrats. End of story.
