How would that force them to act?
The court can operate with 7 in fact it would return the present balance and avoid ties. I don't think the Senate would be under any more pressure filling 2 spots than filling 1.
The Republicans in Washington will TOTALLY join in with Obama on this. They are all together, they are the same. The Republicans are no different from Obama. They are on the same team. They are working together on the same goals.
Obama is salivating.
I don’t trust the GOPe not to roll over and put the POS’s nominee on a fast track. Holder probably not, they can hold back given he was censured. But there are enough looney lefties out there some of whom make him look like Bork.
Hillary drops out and get a pardon and all his forgivin then she gets in
Its time to permanently neutralize this lawless bunch of degenerates who call themselves the Supreme Court.
NO SENATE VOTE ON ANY nomination by the communist ANIMAL in the White House, then 7 new appointees by Trump bringing the number to 15, thereby taking this current menagerie of homosexuals,eggheads, marxists and blackmail victims out of any position to stop a hard right agenda to make this country great again.
This is an opportunity from GOD.
The war on the least important branch of government who has assumed unconstitutional and dictatorial powers and is complicit in the degeneration of the United States has begun.
Will they cancel the debate tonight?
Just heard Cruz tweet on FNC saying the same thing. Next up, McCain, Lindsey and others lined up to approve Obama’s nominee before they even know who it is.
The GOP will roll over for Baraq. Again.
Trump is a good judge of people's character.
Cruz trusted Obama with TPA. Cruz gave us Roberts. Cruz has campaign managers who are using deceptive practices.
WASHINGTON – Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump weighed in on Sunday against Supreme Court Justice Anthony Scalia’s comments on affirmative action in university admissions.
The conservative justice suggested during a hearing last week that some blacks and Hispanics are not strong enough candidates to be admitted purely on academic criteria and might be better off attending “slower-track†schools where they can prosper.
“I thought his remarks were very, very tough. I think they were very, very tough to the African American community actually. I don’t like what he said, no,†Trump said on CNN’s “State of the Union†program.
Is it possible he was murdered? I would put nothing past this admin
When the Senate confirms whatever nutjob Obama desires, I’m hoping to see heads literally rolling on the Senate floor.
Eric Holder type? Probably Eric himself!
Obama could nominate Debbie Wasserman Schulz, just for spite. If that worm McConnell saddles this nation with Obama’s third appointment, giving the Left the majority, he should be regarded as an enemy of this country.
And the supposed rock-solid conservative judges nominated by Bush and the like have done what, exactly?
This is incredibly consequential considering the 5-4 make-up of the court, and considering that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been widely rumored to be considering leaving the court.
If Obama is able to replace Scalia and Ginsburg the Supreme Court could shift to 3-6 in favor of liberal ideological worldview prior to the end of President Obama’s term in office.

Scalia’s unexpected passing sets up a politically charged battle to replace him. Mere moments after his death was confirmed, Conn Carroll, a key staffer for Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), promised Republicans would block anyone that Obama nominated.
The Republicans in Washington will TOTALLY join in with Obama on this. They are all together, they are the same. The Republicans are no different from Obama. They are on the same team. They are working together on the same goals.
RE: Is it possible he was murdered?
More of a possiblility than one would hope. Arkanside and Obamaside are very real.
