what happens if the GOPers continue to cut off their noses to spite their faces? [IOW reject one of their own for consideration]
then it was a gamble that they lost, it's one they can win too the American people will decide I think the Democrats should think long and hard about having Hillary as the nominee because I see a Reagan-esqe landslide on the horizon.
unfortunately, you are probably right about hillary. I see a humiliating 20+ point landslide reminiscent of McGovern in '72. it will set back the cause of female presidents for a generation or more. damn. and it is all because of dems who refuse to get their collective @$$es off the GD couch, put down the beer and VOTE. why can't they be motivated to vote like GOPers?
don't they know if they don't choose the lesser of two evils, that the greater of two evils will happen? why can't they understand that? when they cancel healthcare for the working class with prejudice, I might as well just take a long walk off a short pier.

...Okay , maybe I shouldn't revive this , but.........Now , Obama is going to proceed as if he has the right to nominate a SC justice , possibly nominating a qualified Asian American (who/m I think is technically a Republican , though I suppose that would be " RINO " to the Tea Party base) .
Yes , yes , I suppose the eight-justices-for-a-yearish situation is legal , but COME ON ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! ! 
What , the Republican base is howling " Keep the court at eight for a year " ??!
I find the pointing to FDR's failed court-packing plan weird ~ Who in the world (though , yes , I suppose it was legal too) thinks that was a good idea that should have been carried out ???
FDR's fans , historically , tend not to think so !
And we're talking REPUBLICANS here ~ Presumably , they should , at least faintly , disapprove of all things which FDR did 
!

all I know, is that i'm allowed to fantasize how hard I will laugh my @$$ off if billary gets elected 
and she puts forward the same judge the GOP wouldn't allow Obama to put forward. I can see them trying for 4 more years to refuse to hold hearings.

I can see them trying for 4 more years to refuse to hold hearings.No she won't, she will nominate a real liberal, hopefully a disabled black lesbian. They are turning away their best chance for a neutral judge, and it's hilarious.
