It's not an incremental victory to get a vote on SOME judicial nominees. It's a loss of presidential power. The president needs to react.

Sure it is. Of the 5 nominees that we really care about, 0 got approved before the deal. Now, 3 nominees will get their up/down votes. Last I checked, 3 out of 5 is not a bad batting average, especially in politics.

youre absolutely right....once again there is a blatant disregard of the constitution. this 'deal' stands the real meaning of 'advise and consent' on it's ear.
