It does fit that he would be willing to steal the seat because they knew their chance would likely come in Nov 2016.

As to his outrageous argument....."That this has never happen before filling a SCOTUS set in the last year of a president's term..... that on the face is BS but maybe no seat became available. No one died (Scalia) and no one resigned (?) That is a bull*hit argument the GOP is spewing out. It didn't happen because it didn't need to happen?

NOW the democrats really need to play hardball. No more being nice guys and gals. Every time we bend over backward they laugh and say to themselves "how stupid are these democratic leaders"?

The Marquess of Queensberry died a long time ago. Stop playing as if it make you (dems) honorable. It make you stupid and us vulnerable to the crazy and crazier right wing.

I think it's time for Exodus 21:23-25
