The list will include Ginsburg II and Ginsburg III.
With his history of crossing the aisle and, once there, turning and giving us Conservatives the finger, I don’t think he’s going to ask for a longer list.
If I took as many leaps of logic as you just did, I could jump over the Grand Canyon. He's actually been decent on court nominees.
He has, but he's now in a different position. He's no longer just voting on them, he is going to have to appoint the judges to be voted on by Democrates.
He has a long, and nearly unbroken, history of going across the aisle to met with liberal Dems to side against conservatives. We can already see that in his campaign.
It doesn't take any stretch to know that he will develop a 'pre-approved' list of judges. That's because he will have to 'work' with a Dem controlled Senate.
Can you see him fight for a Judge Thomas the way GHWB did?
I can't even see him consider Judge Thomas, let alone have him on the short list, and no way will he nominate a Judge Thomas.
