Not just her, ANYbody who is seen to consistently lean left.
If you understand who Scalia was and what he represented you will understand why many Republicans/conservatives are willing to die on this hill defending his replacement, and they very well might do that where the Senate is concerned this election cycle. The US Supreme Court already has 4 judges who almost always take the liberal point of view. If another one was to replace the most conservative judge then it would guarantee them losses in every case with a political flavor to it for maybe a decade if not more. They are already losing more than they are winning as it is."It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men" - Frederick DouglassComment

And to think that Scalia was confirmed 98-0!
The Democrats at the time didn't see what was coming? Or did they just recognise a good jurist and leave partisan nonsense behind?
Listening to the Repugs, it appears they are saying the president should not have a say in this at all and the constitution should reflect this!

I'm saying that's what the president can ask the Repugs if they reject her.Originally posted by Assasin View Post
"You confirmed her for the AG position. Is she not good enough for the supreme court?"
So as not to look completely stupid, the Repugs will not consider anyone until after the election. Watch.

Based on what I heard is they basically had two choice, one was worst that Scalia so the President at the time went with the safe. Now imagine more conservative that Scalia.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth.

"It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.Comment

According to Wikipedia...
When Senate Judiciary Committee hearings on Scalia's nomination opened in August 1986, he faced a committee that had just argued divisively over the Rehnquist nomination. Witnesses and Democratic senators contended that, before becoming a judge, Rehnquist had engaged in activities designed to discourage minorities from voting. Committee members had little taste for a second battle over Scalia and were in any event reluctant to oppose the first Italian-American Supreme Court nominee. The judge was not pressed heavily on controversial issues such as abortion or civil rights."It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men" - Frederick DouglassComment

Yes probably.

I would say go for a Sitting judge rather than the AG

Yuh think that would ever happen again? These Repugs will battle until kingdom come. You'll never again see a unanimous decision in such a vote.

Not in our time. That was a very different era in US politics."It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men" - Frederick DouglassComment

The Supreme Court Nomination is so important that I don't think any president would wait on any election. You may not have this opportunity for another decade to replace one of the most right wing judge with a left winger or centralist.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth.

Well, what is very clear is that this president won't be allowed to replace him with a left winger."It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men" - Frederick DouglassComment
