And by early....they mean right away.

I could be wrong, but wasn’t Ayotte a “Tea Party” candidate when she was elected???

Yeah. So was Rubio. The Tea Party really needs to
work on its vetting process.
To: C19fan
I predict that there will be no action until mid-November.
Then Mitch, pissed off that Trump is President-elect, will have this Justice voted on and confirmed.

Following the usual GOPe tactic when dealing with Democrats - preemptive unconditional surrender (as long as they personally keep their taxpayer funded perks)

Well, to be fair to them, they're in a box, considering that
Obama picked the judge that Orrin Hatch said he should pick last week. The establishment idiots are soooo concerned that Trump will win the nomination, while they spend all their time shooting themselves in the foot.
I can hear Obama now: "I picked the nominee the senior Republican wanted, and now they're just being politically divisive by not giving him a fair hearing and a vote."
And, the sad part is, thanks to Orrin Hatch, he'll be right.

Hatch is a frickin’ traitor.

No!
We need a senatorial hold on that nomination. Thank God we have Ted Cruz. He is imperfect, from time to time, but he almost always does the right thing in his role as a US Senator.

But Hatch just issued a statement that he would not favor confirmation hearings because it is not just about the person nominated, but rather the broader principle at issue - giving the American people an opportunity to have some input at the ballot box this fall.
Ayotte is not on the judiciary committee. So who gives a fig what she wants.

The Tea Party has been their own version of the establishment for a while. Just try to convince everybody they are on the outside.
To: Pollster1
We need the senate to uphold the hold, as well.
It is only a “gentleman’s agreement”, as I understand it.
