CNN)—The Senate is likely to approve Loretta Lynch as the nation's next attorney general in the next two or three days, an influential Republican said Sunday.
Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee told CNN's Jim Sciutto on "State of the Union" that he expects a deal to quickly come together this week to clear both Lynch and an anti-human trafficking law that Democrats have blocked due to an abortion-related provision.
"My sense is, over the next 48 to 72 hours, that is going to be resolved, and we will move on to this Iran issue," said Corker, who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and has spearheaded a deal that would give Congress a chance to weigh in on President Barack Obama's deal to thwart Iran's nuclear ambitions.

And this appears to be her major qualification?
Any GOP who votes for her confirmation and is running for POTUS i will automatically NOT vote for if they get the nomination. We have enough Marxists in government we need to go back the other way

Well, we know the vote can’t be delayed indefinitely.
I have thought all along that the GOP Senate doesn’t have enough “No” votes to reject her. Which is in itself a problem.
It’s quite possible that 4 GOP senators will defect, resulting in a 50-50 tie vote. In which case, Joe Biden would be the 51st and tiebreaking vote to confirm her. This battle may well be lost. See how the vote goes.
The silver is even now being divided up into 30-piece lots.
What are the current odds on McStain being one of the four?
So glad we elected the Republicans in a landslide in 2014!
Whatcha wanna bet they compromise by dropping the abortion provision in return for confirming Lynch? and throw in something else for Hussein that he hasn’t even asked for?
No bets here, it’d be a loser.
When the parties agree...the people get screwed.
I’m still trying to figure out even one thing that has changed since the GOP took the majority. The Dems still rule.
Another incompetent moron on the government payroll.
Calling people like Lynch incompetent is dismissive of how truly evil they are in their desires to rebuild the country around how they want it to be.
Not just incompetent.......she doesn’t believe in the LAW! An AG that doesn’t care about LAWS being enforced......just like Holder.
Looks like you’re right, unfortunately.
Ever notice how the MSM tries to marginalize Ted Cruz as “the least popular member of the Senate”?
If that’s even partially true, it’s good on him.
Juan has said he'll be voting against Lynch. Reelection coming up in 2016 and he needs to drift right and also start securing the border first again.
Oh, come on, be reasonable. A lawless president's gotta have a lawless AG, otherwise he couldn't even function and 'get things done'.
Does Corker remind anyone else of Roger Sterling?
These GOP senate hacks gave us Eric Holder.
Now they are going to confirm Lynch, who is a racist and worse than Holder.
A pox on the GOP senators who vote for Lynch.
After seeing the best they (Dems) have to offer I have stronger feelings about race then at any time in my life - movement has not been positive. The pendulum is picking up speed. Same for the sexual perversion crappers.

:Why not print this questionaire up encircle your answers and send it to your US Senator
Dear Senator
INS...Amnesty.. Forget about Ebola
We don’t allow cattle to enter without a background health and ancestry check which we also reqiure of legal immigrants who wait years and still go thru health and record checks. We also require that any legal immingrant demonstrate prior to entry that they offer a contribution to our society and not dependency upon it .
Yet we’re letting children and gang bangers in without doing any of this which has resulted in dispersing virulent new diseases (measles) and drug use which has resulted in unreported cases in schools where these illegal kids were placed.. Plus shoved a severe financial strain on local governments where they are placed .
Should any candidate for Attorney General supporting these practices be denied confirmation ?(Yes) (No) . Should the senate abandon the 60 vote majority for the “nuclear option” used by Reid when majority leader of the senate to any such candidate to be Attorney General supporting the above by applying the simple majority Reid rule. But citing the Hanen court injunction ruling that would restrict the use of the Reid rule only when such a ruling by a Judge were made ? (Yes) (No)
Should those given this bypassed favored treatment who miss their INS hearing be deported fortwith ? (Y) (N).. ? Denied re-entry (Y)(N) ? Snould that also apply to any illegal convicted of a felony (Y)(N)
In “countries where an American citizen decides to be a “legal” emigree never mind being a seasonal visitor still are denied voting privledges. Own land in their own name. Face steep fines before getting kicked out let alone denied income and energy subsistance including food stamps, or bring in family members .
I (do) (don’t) believe we should allow such full citizenship privledges mentioned above which are denied by the country of national origin of the above, to a legal American immigrant , deny such full citizen privledges to any (emigree) (seasonal vistor) (illegal) if their country does not allow those same privledges to any citizen of the United States, .
While such a position will be condemed as defacto deportation particularly by the political establishment .Would you continue to support a Senator who refuses to support such restrictions ? (Y) (N) Does that also include erecting border barriers such as fencing designed to discourage surrepticious or uncontolled entry ? (Yes) (No)
Should any American citizen which goes overseas to join a foreign entity fighting against the United States (such as ISIS) Be denied re-entry (Y)(N) and their citizenship revoked? (Y) (N) Should that person be charged with treason (Y)(N)
Very Truly Yours For Restoring the value of American citizenship and Conservative Government
