Another view:
If a president appoints a person to fill a judgeship vacancy, then that person automatically becomes the judge. The Senate would have to vote AGAINST the nomination in order to kill it. By not voting, they automatically give their CONSENT.........

Interesting view. After all, the President was elected by the people, so he's their representative.
