Who should name Scalias replacement? Obama or Hillary?

[WildBillKelsoe]

Hard to say really. Given that he was president when Scalia died, it should probably be Obama. But Hillary is more likely to name a young, liberal judge

So I think we would be better off with Hillary's choice

Clinton doesn't have the authority.

She will a year from now

I personally think Obamas hands are tied. He has to go with a moderate to bait the Republicans into confirming
Hillary will be free to name a young liberal that Obama can't at this point in his term

Republicans may sit on their hands until things shake out and then jump to Obamas pick when the election looks bad

Too late then

Either way the republican congress is screwed...If Obama picks anyone and they try to delay, they will lose votes people are pissed about the delays and not working when we pay them....

Makes me laugh to see Ted Cruz, and Mitch pee their pants.........

What Obama is doing today~

I don't think you understand the process.

Obama has not even made a nomination yet. Once he does, Republicans will schedule hearings for the Judiciary Committee. It will take at least 3-4 months to get on the calendar- so figure sometime in June or July. Then after a few months of hearings they can can (and will) vote against allowing a vote in the full Senate for that candidate. They will ask Obama to nominate another candidate. Those hearings will be scheduled to begin after the election, maybe February...

Irrelevant.

Both Roberts and Alito were confirmed

Will Republicans give Obama the same courtesy?

Of course not. Obama is of little consequence now. He is old news.

Obama is the only game in town now

In the last year he has.....Recognized Cuba, nuclear disarmament treaty with Iran, global warming treaty, saved Obamacare, gotten same sex marriage

Meanwhile......The Republican Congress has done nothing

 

[whitehall]

The reason that democrats, especially Harry Reid, are so desperate to appoint a new Justice before the body even got cold is that they are stuck with a deadbeat old commie and a psychotic abused woman who traded self respect for political power. Appointing a socialist anti-American to the Supreme Court is their last forlorn hope.

No this is the first time I have had enough time to study and learn.

Bush put several in , why is it such a big problem for Obama. If they allowed the pick, right away?

Thank God for you that projection isn't deadly. Trump cannot win, he can't get the votes.
