Boom!
The voting is still ongoing but, seconds ago, Judge Neil Gorsuch received enough “Yeas” to become Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch.
It’s almost impossible to overstate how important this was
We’re sure we’ll have more on this later, and we’re equally sure liberal heads are exploding, but for now ...Celebrate! This is a huge, huge, win.
Not sure as of now, but I’ll reply to you when I see the vote record.
I thought we had three dems with us on this?
Thank you God. You gave us a path and we've taken it....Dems be damned.
We need many more Constitutionally sound and sane justices at the Federal District and Federal Appellate Court levels, too. Oh, we pray for more.
Stephen G. Breyer is 78
Anthony M. Kennedy is 80
Ruth Bader Ginsburg is 83
Both Clarence Thomas is 68
Samuel A. Alito Jr is 66
Wow....we have a real shot at 3 more.
A man who will likely influence the fate of the nation for longer than the time of Clinton’s first inauguration til now...I agree!
Three cheers for restoring the rule of law!
The vote stood between them and a 2 wek vacation.....moved ot up...dont get in the way stampade.

Surprised they hung around on a Fri. That’s overtime for them.
Mon and Fri usually travel days.
After cloture is initiated, if senators insist on continuing debate, they can only do it for 30 more hours. You can initiate the final confirmation vote at any time during and after that period.
Please be careful with your language. The left will be freaking out over everything for the next few days. I know what you mean, but meanings can be misconstrued.
Let us keep in mind how different this would have been had Hillary been elected or we had lost the Senate.
Thank you
You forgot Benedict Roberts....
>>Justice Thomas as 52 to 48<<
Yep, and he ended up being one of the few Justices in History that actually respects and defends our Constitutional Freedoms.
This is a HUGE WIN. Many thanks to the Trump Team and all the folks in Congress who made it happen...
SNTOW
Still Not Tired Of Winning. In fact, this could be habit-forming.
"Winning? I say, I think I shall, shan't I...?"
