Dang see this is what you get to do when you are the majority. You get to vote on various candidates for Supreme Court.

Yes, it was a good thing we had a 55 to 45 majority during the Clinton years. We were able to use our majority muscle to stop left-wing ACLUer ideologues like Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Ooops... wait, she passed with over 90 votes?

I think I forgot that we were majority in the Senate during Clinton years. Wow we really wasted many years than. That is a shame.

Yep, Ginsburg passed with over 90 votes. This was because most of the Republicans (like Orrin Hatch) thought that Clinton was entitled to choose the judges, and if the judge was "well-qualified" and did not have any history of corruption, he/she should be confirmed, even if his/her ideology was different from that of the Republicans.

Democrats controlled the Senate in '94, but nevermind.
