They really want this before they lose the senate.

I think unless all the winners on our side are Tea Party type conservatives, Bitch McConnell would approve anyone Barrycades puts up.

I believe that too many Democrats from red states have to stand for election this year to make this a viable option. Will they be willing to commit political suicide in order to confirm a liberal justice? Doubtful. A lame duck strategy may be more likely, but the Republicans could probably delay a vote in that scenario.

Deval Patrick will need something to do now that he's not going to be governor of Massatwosits (Obamaspeak). Obama would nominate him because he's a moonbat's moonbat.

Let the moslem illegal alien ENEMY COMBATANT appoint whoever he wants to the Supreme Court.

He can appoint SpongeBob Squarepants for all I care.

Once he’s revealed as having 7 SSNs, forged Hawaii birth certificate, and ISN’T A CITIZEN of any type, all his actions will be null and void.

Hopefully Breyer’s and Ginsburg’s sense of self importance will cause them to disregard this pressure from liberals. Why should they put an end to their brilliant careers just to allow some no name replacement get in there.

If the Pubbies DO NOT stop this dead in its tracks, we’re dead.

Let the SCOTUS work short-handed until 2014.

I don’t know about Breyer, but the rumor is that Ginsburg plans to stay in office until she dies, unless she can be replaced by a Republican. This is because she is very afraid of who Obama might appoint to her seat.

Specifically, that he will appoint a justice who is antisemitic and anti-Israel. She has a pretty good idea of who the candidates might be who would replace her, and she doesn’t like them.

If Ruth Bader Ginsberg retires, Obama will have to replace her with another feminist extremist, or risk the wrath of the Democrats’ feminist-extremist wing.

Such women routinely believe that the right to abortion should not end with the birth of a baby, and they also tend to be extremely outspoken — a combination of characteristics not ideal for a successful confirmation hearing. So unless a potential Supreme Court nominee exists who’s both an extreme feminist and at the same time a shrinking violet, Obama and the Democrats would be better off if Ruth Bader Ginsburg remains on the bench.

As for Justice Breyer, could his retirement fail to set off a full-scale campaign by the powerful LGBT lobby for Obama to nominate America’s first openly gay Supreme Court justice? Obama should be urging Justice Breyer to remain with Justice Ginsberg on the bench, even if they’re so old they can’t keep from drooling all over it.

If I were Ginsburg or Breyer, I’d bump up my personal security. The ‘Rats are desperate to get them replaced before they lose the Senate and, especially, the Presidency. I don’t think they’d stop at suasion or even extorsion to make them see the light.

I am all for their immediate retirement, then Congress should just reduce the number of Justices to 7 the very next day.
