BTW— there is NOTHING in the real US Constitution that says there MUST be 9 justices or any other number. Just got emailed that little gem. FReepers? This would freak out these bozos.
Well, Roberts could always go join the leftist 4.
The GOPe is going to make this a two phased disaster.
First, they are going to stonewall and try to deny a sitting president his Constitutional right to name a Supreme Court justice, even though it will mean leaving a vacancy open for over a year. Further compounding this will be the fact that the nominee will be a highly qualified minority.
Second, after a tremendous amount of political damage has been inflicted (likely leading to a loss of the majority) the GOP Senate will cave and go ahead and confirm the President’s nominee anyway.
The GOPe is so stupid.
