Yep, you can count on one thing in life, and that's Orrin Hatch can't keep his trap shut. He simply MUST weigh in and pontificate on every issue.

From the article I've linked above, Hatch's comments from LAST WEEK:

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT), the longest serving Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, offered his own thoughts on who President Obama should nominate to fill the seat left open by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia last week. “[Obama] could easily name Merrick Garland, who is a fine man,” Hatch told the conservative news site Newsmax, before adding that “he probably won’t do that because this appointment is about the election. So I’m pretty sure he’ll name someone the [liberal Democratic base] wants.”
