Just because the president nominates someone doesn’t mean that the Senate has to roll over and blindly confirm him/her.
And it’s just effin’ lame to claim “It’s not fair, the next president should get to do the nominating!” Lord, these people are just WEAK and pathetic. USE THE PROCESS! Of course, that might necessitate McConnell, et al having to actually say no to Obama, “which would make us look bad and be subject to criticism from the people who will criticize us anyway.”
Ptooey.
No, but they usually do.
