Of course her “2-for-1” minority status is also pointed out... but the GOP isn’t losing any votes there anyway, so election year politicking is irrelevant... especially compared to the damage she would do in that chair.
They can Bork her.
Not really irrelevant in all the Senate races Republicans have to defend. And in the meantime most “ties” will go to Obama because of the makeup of most of the Courts feeding the SC.
