Well, I remain mystified that with 55 GOP Senators, all of whom won an election on his watch, the President hasn't been allowed to put his stamp on the court system.

Let me help out here. 55 is less than 60.

If there were 70 Republicans in the Senate, the Democrats would find a way to scream "foul" and get enough Republicans to knuckle under to get their way.

I'm absolutely convinced of it.

Let me help you out. They only needed 50 plus Chaney to change a two year old Senate Rule.

That was simply beyond the pale for our seven dearly beloved members of the chardonney and brie set.

What a glorious "victory for conservatism".
