Somebody better send McConnell a pair because as it stands now he is ill equipped for the coming battle

McConnell knows he only has 46 votes (if he has that many) to confirm another Gorsuch.

The closer the vote is to election day, the better - OK, let's say it should occur in early October, to maximize the campaign ads.

No one who could be confirmed by THIS Senate is worth having on the Court.

I’m counting at least 4 democrat senators voting for the nominee in the fall

Maybe, but the summer is too soon to count on them.

The odds of them doing the right thing will be going up, substantially, after Labor Day and really will soar in October.

Democrats and liberals say that McConnell stole the seat that was supposed to be Merrick Garland.

Shows just what he is. A spineless goober.

Prove me wrong Mitch. Nuke in a conservative who is pro-2A and pro-life by August 1. Prove me wrong, Mitch.

Based on the obstruction and delays the Dems have shown with other judicial nominees, McConnell better start the process immediately upon receiving PT’s nominee.

Trump already has his list of 25 potential SC candidates. He’s probably calling each of them up to see who to submit.

If Kagan could get confirmed in August of 2010, the I see no reason why Pryor (or whomever) can’t be confirmed this summer.

Too many frigging Rinos. Maybe McCain will be gone by then.

Yeah, I haven’t been over there in years. LOL! Every second word is the F-bomb or “fascist”.

As though any of us on the Constitutional right want anything to do with national socialism.

Apparently, A list has been publicized, or leaked. My question is- Why now? Why help the enemy?

The list has been around since before the 2016 election. Perhaps a deletion or addition but the list is not new.

Yes..., he did. Look, I’m not fan of his, but he’s too feeble to address those jerks.

I give her high marks for her amazing courage. She didn’t back down one inch. She was in their faces.

So while I defend McConnell for being too feeble to be useful here, it begs to reason if he’s too feeble to be useful in the Senate? The answer is a resounding no.

That man needs to stand down and let someone else take his place.

Hey, Mitch, WTF ever happened to your August session to finish up business? Now you have even more business.

This shouldn’t take long - whomever is nominated is sure to have had a detailed background check not too long ago, so that only needs to be updated and shouldn’t take more than a few weeks at most.

VOTE BEFORE LABOR DAY!!!
