If the President tries to ram through a replacement with only six weeks to go to the election, I think it would backfire bigly on him with the American public. Better to wait till he is reelected. This will motivate both sides to get out the vote.

No!!! You could not be more wrong! Pushing a nominee through will energize the base and completely demoralize the Dems. They will be able to focus on nothing else. This will also be a test of whether the GOP Senate is worth its salt. Balls to the walls boys! This is the big one! Make us proud!

This is the October surpise in September. The timing could not be more perfect! Thanks Ruth. Maybe in death you will be able to accomplish something worthwhile.

I absolutely agree. This us no time for America to see President Trump blink. That’s what the left wants, to see a glimmer of anything approaching deference on the part of him. They will attack him like a crazed pack of dingoes. He must show his strength in the face of this situation. Condolences and continuity. With no apologies

That's possible. But it could go the other way. It's too soon to say.
