I couldn’t imagine him taking any other position.

No need for hearings.

[I couldn’t imagine him taking any other position.]


The only reason he’s not tweeting a picture of people doing a high five is because senators are supposed to be dignified.

Only Gardner, Burr and Romney are left.

Another one down. Gardner is about the only question mark at this point.

Maybe. I didn’t get that implication, but I guess we’ll find out.

If I did my arithmetic right, up to 6 GOP abstentions is still a win, if no Republican votes no, and Pence chimes in.

McConnell hinted at “this year” as well. They must have made a deal.

“Just now @MittRomney told us he would not decide on advancing a SCOTUS nom until he’s had a chance to talk to fellow Republicans tomorrow at a closed luncheon.”

53-6 = 47 GOP to 47 Dems (including “independents”). Add in Pence, and it’s 48 to 47, a win. And GOPes like Collins can still crow about taking a stand.
