With this senate? Do you think Obama could not buy off a few of the worst of the RINOs at firesale prices? Just hole it up in the judiciary committee. Put it on ice - not put some ice on it. Any vote is dangerous.
Agreed. The Dems only need four Republican votes to put get a judge confirmed. How do you think McCain, Graham, Kirk, Collins, Murkowski, or Cornyn will vote? Obama would be a fool to make a recess appointment here. He knows he will get what he wants if it goes to a vote.
And even worse, there is a chance the Dems could gain Senate seats in the November election. Obama will have two weeks after the new Senate is in place to push a vote. With 24 GOP Senate seats up for grabs and only 10 Dem seats, he has got to like the odds. The only hope we have is if McConnell refuses to bring it to a vote. Scary, I know. But McConnell may be our only chance.
Hey Jeb, you’re not important to me. And millions of others either.
Guns, check, ammo,check, krugerrands, check, water, check, food, check....
Grassley is the critical person here.
He can keep it bottled up in committee until next year if he wants.
Weewh - I feel just so much better, knowing that, you just have no idea - MREs, check, dried dogfood, check ..
You know what I like about Jeb! ?
That he is so completely honest about his disdain for us peons. That our concerns and fears are less than the dirt beneath his feet.
All the rest pretend that they care about us, but not ol’ Jeb!
Jeb, you just answered why the base is not voting for you or any rino.
They’d need 14 GOP votes. The filibuster still applies for SCOTUS nominations. Even with the expected takeover by the dems in the Senate this year, reaching 60 votes would be an extremely tall order.
What?
How did Jeb go from being a pretty good governor to...such an absolute weasel? What is going to do next? Ask his mommy to help him? Oh, wait...
I see tar and feathers
Jeb's got a lot of cool things he can do.
“Caucuses only let Caucasians in, not my Latino amigos.
So that’s why I’m getting my butt licked.
I mean kicked.”

This isn’t the first time something hasn’t matter to him in the past few weeks. Teri wasn’t important to him, either.
Harry Reid (or Schumer) would simply suspend the filibuster again, as they did in the 2014 lame duck, when they packed the Circuit Courts with leftists, which now will come home to roost, with a 4-4 SCOTUS
I think Caitlyn Jenner should be the nominee. We don’t have a transgendered, wise, TV reality show ex Olympic gold medal winner on the bench yet.
I tell ya.......
this is why I like Trump : nobody’s $$$ puppet
