Ain't gonna happen Laura. They've been ignoring us for years. Do the "nuclear option" which they've been threatening for 2 full years.
It's plainly obvious they didn't have the votes two years ago...I'm not sure they have them now. It isn't the entire Republican side of the Senate...it's the McCains of the Senate. We can thank Bush for building the majority and now it's time to attack the minority of Republicans who neither understand why they are in the majority or deserve our financial support.

Chuckie Schumer reminds me of "Chuckie" of the movies - a demonic child.
The RINOs remind me of those failed parents in the "Supernanny" show ... apathetically saying "Stop throwing firecrackers at your younger sister, Chuckie" and stuff like that.
No! Stop it! Get disciplined, get serious and stop it NOW!!
Enough with the games. It's as if the RINOs think they can just pretend to fake an effort and that is enough.
Nope. Trying is lying. Get it DONE. Get a cloture vote. If it fails, get another . and another... and one every hours night and day until everyone is sick of them.
Then have a procedural vote to change the rules so that filibuster of nomination can pass with only 50 votes, if there were 2 previous cloture votes. In other words, you need 3 readings of the nomination.
Try to pass it.
If you fail there, go to a 'ruling from the chair' that filibusters on nominations are against the majority rule as implied by the advice and consent clause of the Constitution... see also the Ballin case. Have a vote on the ruling of the chair.
Then have at. VOTE ON THE JUDGES UP OR DOWN.
ALL OF THE ABOVE SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED BY NOW. IT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN THE LAST SESSION IN CONGRESS. NOW IS THE TIME TO DO IT.
Do you mean the Constitutional Option?
Or do you mean let the dems do their thing? - explain please.
"Nuclear Option" is a MSM/liberal coinage....
