gop stubbornness is coming back to haunt them....tie verdicts

[strollingbones]

tie verdicts simply allow lower court rulings to stand.....that is not working well for the conservatives....now is it...

 

[rightwinger]

The GOP is declaring the Supreme Court is irrelevant and has no interest in having a full court

 

[CrusaderFrank]

So what? Small price to pay for keeping that radical lunatic Garland away from SCOTUS

 

[strollingbones]

Garland would have voted to allow forced union dues anyway, so what is the point?

 

[strollingbones]

i dont think is true...the ussc justices always seem more moderate once on the court....

My point is that Republicans are setting a precedent that says there is no urgency in filling Supreme Court vacancies

That waiting for a president from your party is the best strategy

In the last year of a lame duck president, which has some precedence (not total precedence, but some).

Congress sets the number of seats of the Supreme Court by law. If they say there shall be 8 judges, then it's too bad if you don't like it.

I doubt one would have been confirmed so early, there is a process. Chances are obama's pick would side with the other progessives so explain how it's a GOP loss.
