There must be thousands of similar messages in the archives - from people who consistently underestimate Hillary's relentless quest for absolute power.

I am not one of them.
However, there is not a doubt in my mind that she would need 60 Senate votes for confirmation to the Supreme Court. I maintain that that will never happen, regardless of how much she may want to be confirmed. Those files of hers are growing staler and staler.

Your math is as reliable as your political judgement. It would take 67 votes to reach the two-thirds majority of 100 senators required for Supreme Court confirmation.
