How about the other stalling tactics...........Judicial committees.............and the Filabusters..........that Reid went Nuclear on a short while back...............did so on appointments and in recess WHEN HE HAD THE VOTES............................

Here's the real problem Republicans have. 24 of them are up for re-election this year. The last thing any of them want is to be the subject of that clip of 2006 insisting the President has a right to appoint judges and in 2016 insisting he doesn't.
You guys shot your wad on this issue with Reagan and Bush appointing some real knuckle-draggers to the court. You really can't get away with it now.
