I found Feinstein's comment about O'Connor agreeing to stay until a candidate is confirmed a hint that they might be planning on Boltonizing the nomination...
BTW, Biden really stepped in it on Face the Nation---
He was asked if he could vote for Janice Rogers Brown, and he pretty much said NO---and when asked why not, since she was just confirmed to the DC Court...he said that the DC Court is a lot different than the SCOTUS, because "THE SUPREME COURT MAKES LAW"---the other courts don't"!!!
So, Biden admitted that they want the SCOTUS to be the court that MAKES LAW!!!

A money quote for the talk shows tomorrow or Tuesday!
If the Supreme is lacking a member can the remaining members still rule on cases? Anyone?
"So, Biden admitted that they want the SCOTUS to be the court that MAKES LAW!!!"
He's finally admitted something publically a lot of us have known for awhile about Dims, thought I wouldn't count on the MSM to pick this up - think many of them think the same thing.
BTW - Diane F just said on FNC that the Pres should appoint a 'mainstream conservative' and went on to say that it should be someone a majority of the American public can get behind. IMHO, since the majority of the American public are sick of the activist leftist judges, then the majority of the American people could/would get behind Edith Jones, Janice Rodgers Brown, Lettwig or a couple of others :-)
But wait, maybe Biden never had any brain cells in the first place.

In baseball terms, that quote should be a hanging slider (much like Dodger pitcher Derek Lowe served up yesterday) that gets hit out of the park by our side, especially by Rush ("show prep for the rest of the media").
I didn't see his whole interview .. Good catch
As for Diane's comment .. we thought they would stall when we saw the letter
McConnel called on Diane about stalling
