March 16, 201610 yr Probably won't matter. True. I've lost hope that anyone will get a decent chance and frankly I'm disgusted. People need to just do their dang job.
March 16, 201610 yr Who do conservative Republicans want selecting the Supreme Court Justice Obama, Clinton, or Trump?
March 16, 201610 yr Who do conservative Republicans want selecting the Supreme Court Justice Obama, Clinton, or Trump? I imagine his timing was strategic in this regard.
March 16, 201610 yr FWIW, seeing everywhere it will be Garland. From what little I know he wouldn't have been my first choice, but is older, known as a moderate, has a mild conservative streak, and was unanimously confirmed before (I might need to double check that). I think it's a pick meant to turn the screws on the Republicans by making their opposition appear even more partisan.
March 16, 201610 yr And so the streak continues. Only Catholic and Jewish folks need apply. If confirmed, would become the fourth sitting justice on the Court to come from the DC Circuit Appeals bench, with Ginsberg, Thomas, and Roberts.
