If we have Supreme Court vacancies this summer, Republicans should use all these crazy quotes from people like Durbin, Kennedy and Dean to illustrate to the American people that it's the Democrat politicians who are out of the mainstream, not conservative judicial nominees. Then if Democrats try to filibuster a Scalia-like justice, the American people would gladly support the nuclear option.
I agree but I don't thing the Republicrats have the cujones to try such a feat.
Right now, they should be calling for the resignation of that Dick Durbin. He is treasonous and that is a fact.
Doing away with the judicial fillibuster is not the "nuclear" option.
It is getting back to following the Constitution.
The "judicial" fillibuster was something that the Democrats dreamed up and the Republicans allowed them to get away with.
