Figures!
And by early....they mean right away.
I could be wrong, but wasn’t Ayotte a “Tea Party” candidate when she was elected???
December 19, 2001 The American Prospect listed Merrick Garland as a “First Tier” pick for SCOTUS should Al Gore be President

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.
Yep, the weak sisters.
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.
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.
The highest grade I could find on her from conservative grading sites was 26%- F

Let them meet. It won’t change a thing. This or any other nomination never makes it to the floor.
It,s the Biden Rule.
I’m going to agree with something I read today. The GOP are juts waiting for the primaries to finish to stab us in the back on this. The GOP is worthless and the GOP Senate has always been the bottom of the GOP barrel. BOHICA.

RINO stampede gaining energy. I’m so not shocked. Self-preservation first, the people be damned.
Kabuki Theatre, they’ll all-in to act like they’ll oppose then fold. Getting old.
There was never a blockade. More of a mirage. A hologram.
