.What this now means is that the judge will be praised for her service and then given a burial. Then President Trump and the Republican-led Senate will begin the process to fill the untimely vacancy to the nations highest court.
This is very tragic but we have to remember that the country must move on. Also, with the Democrats changing the rules of the election in so many states, there are likely to be some very important cases that reach the Supreme Court.

This is not workable - this Justice would probably have to recuse.
And besides that, in the practical sense, her seat being left vacant is the same as their being 1 more conservative Justice.
The Circuit Court seats are now filled - any District Court seats than still be filled should be the focus for the remainder of the time.
I don’t believe that there is any filibuster option.
(curious)
It’s going to be a strong motivator for the Base on both sides. GOTV on steroids.
For any in the middle it is going to be a quandary, but definitely a new, additional major issue. Casts a big shadow over any polling.
Why?
Exactly what we were discussing around the campfire before this article came out. Nomination needed by Monday!
Look at how long the dems delayed the Kavanaugh confirmation. This is going to be a long drawn out zoo.
Thanks to Harry Reid there is NO filibuster option!! Thought he was being to cute and NOW it is biting them in the butt!!!
Mittens and Murkowski will not vote to confirm. I imagine one or two others won’t either. Collins from Maine quickly comes to mind. We have too many RINO traitors in our midst.
The Crazies are already Threatening Violence if Trump tries to replace her ,D’oh
Why? You know its not going to be approved for months anyway. Dems will drag nominee thru the mud with endless hearings about how bad and evil the judge is.
Lisa Marie Boothe. HOT!!
Can this year get any more insane?!? Apparently the answer is yes!
The Dems can't stall anything. It's all done in the Senate, and there's no filibuster thanks to Harry Reid.
If the House and Senate disagree on the time of adjournment, the Constitution says that the president may, adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper.
Correct.
“Roberts will still RULE the Court unless Thomas and Alito get a reinforcement.”
He doesn’t now?
Why not?
“still”
I said “still”...
Because Harry Reid nuked it.
The justice cannot recuse for a constitutional matter, like an election case is likely to be. They have to sit and rule.
