Is it in the Consitution that the senate must confirm? I don't get that really, the President gets to pick who runs with him without 'approval' why would a appointment for vacany in the VP slot be any different???

25th Amendment. Think about it. The Senate has to approve all of the president's treaties. The Senate confirms his cabinet appointments. And both houses confirm a VP replacement.
