It is a tradition that all federal judicial vacancies in an presidential election are held off until after the election.

This tradition was backed-up by a GOP blue note last year.

Can you confirm what I just wrote, I believe I have it right?

Hopefully that tradition holds through the 2016 election year. I pray for the continued good health and service of all of the members of this court. I really hope that Obama does NOT get to make any more nominations to the Supreme Court.

No offense, but do you really believe that Barack Obama, AKA Valerie Jarrett, feels constrained in any way by "tradition?"
