Well, that's not exactly what she said but it's close! (see exact quote below the fold.)
No darlin, they went to hell in 2000 when you chose to be the deciding vote in Bush V. Gore. Remember that case? Ah, yes, you should. That's the one that led to an unjust war and a number of other atrocities. It also led to Roberts and Alito being named to the Supreme Court. Ma'am, you were the one that allowed all this to happen.
So, lament all you want but I have no pity. You did it.
She said that last week’s decision was likely to create "an increasing problem for maintaining an independent judiciary."

"Gosh," she said, "I step away for a couple of years and there’s no telling what’s going to happen."Justice O’Connor criticized the recent decision, Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, only obliquely, reminding the audience that she had been among the authors of McConnell v. Federal Election Commission, the 2003 decision that was overruled in large part on Thursday.
"If you want my legal opinion" about Citizens United, Justice O’Connor said, "you can go read" McConnell
"These two cases," Justice O’Connor said, referring to Citizens United and Caperton, "should be a warning to states that still choose their judges by popular election."
Then she sketched out what the future might hold.
"We can anticipate that labor unions and trial lawyers, for instance, might have the financial means to win one particular state judicial election," she said. "And maybe tobacco firms and energy companies have enough to win the next one.
"And if both sides unleash their campaign spending monies without restrictions, then I think mutually-assured destruction is the most likely outcome."
You go gal, just try to pin this all on the bad boys on the court.
