I hope Ginsburg will see the handwriting on the wall that the court is going to move right, and go ahead and retire, as it won’t do her any good to hold out.

I hope the timing was pre-planned in that Kennedy retires, Trump appoints and Senate affirms before January 2019.

McCain can’t vote, unless he travels to Washington, D.C./ Congress, and that just won’t happen...

He is in no condition to do jack ****.

I think after the protesters yesterday, McConnell might be a little pissed and may be thinking its time to end the leftist BS. I think he will usher in the Trump nominee with ease, thank you Harry Reid for blowing up the Senate rules...

No doubt McConnell came thru when it mattered.

Kennedy was right on the recent votes, including the Christian baker, the pregnancy center free speech case, travel ban, and union coercion.

Yes, Kennedy often voted the right way, but not often enough. For example, his was the swing vote that gave us the disastrous and unconstitutional Obergefell v. Hodges decision, which violated the Tenth Amendment by taking away the right of states to have laws on marriage.

We need a more reliable conservative. I'm hoping the Trump administration will give us one. But of course the Left will fight this with everything they've got. And there are a few wobbly Republicans in the Senate who might side with them.

His fellow open-borders buddy Flake will also see this as his departing moment of glory.

Don't be shocked if we see a few jumping Jeffords in order to block a true conservative.  

Flake has already stopped any Judges for the last two weeks.

He’s been the 5th on all these 5-4... Kennedy is a swing vote that tends toward the rule of law.

——A great new justice will open the door to overturning Roe vs. Wade.-——

We will more than one seat filled to do that...

Personally, I don’t think it will ever get overturned but only modified.
