Wow, is Graham naive or what? How can he believe the Democrats will give all the nominees an up or down vote when the "deal" explicitly says only three!

Graham's reasoning is specious at best. It reminds of the the joke about the old bull and the young bull standing on hill overlooking the pasture full of cows. The young bull says to the old bull, "Let's run down and get us some." The old bull responds, "Let's walk down and get them all."

The constitutional option would have gotten them all. The only rationale I can see for Graham's reasoning is that he didn't think there were enough GOP votes to pass the constitutional option. Still, it should have been put to a vote to test party discipline and loyalty.

Maybe this was covered but the only, and I stress only, sense I could make out of Graham is that the Democrats will not hold with their Party if they try to block a nominee. Is that correct?
