So much of that statement is unsubstantiated B.S.

Sounds so nice, you need to say it twice.
I remember lot's of loving descriptions of W. Pretty sure all presidents have their haters. Only small minds automatically assume someone's opposition to the policies of a politician of a different race is because of racism. Which half of Obama do his haters hate? His white half or his black half?
Is Allen West racist? How about Ben Carson?

I think it's just more visible these days due to social media.
I can only imagine what Twitter would have looked like during Watergate or Lewinsky.

The Republican party continues to make themselves look foolish.
Its pretty sad when they say they will oppose anyone that the President nominates for the SC...before they even know who it is.
Then, in a complete shock to them...they wonder why Donald Trump is blasting their boys Cruz and Rubio???
The Republican party is on the ropes, and they cant blame anyone but themselves.

My thoughts exactly. This should be entertaining.

I remember an article about how the people who understand that politics is just a game are much more tolerant of it, so let the games begin....
I heard an argument on NPR this morning about how a vote now would place a moderate Senator that is up for election in the position of voting far more conservative so he wouldn't have to defend his vote. Interesting perspective.

I'm thinking Sandoval obviously didn't want to be the pawn.

God forbid Oboma nominate a moderate who is good on guns.
Would've blown the whole Agenda 21-lovin communist theory right outta the water.

Do you think you might be substituting certainty for political theatre? When exactly did Oboma nominate Mr. Sandoval?

Obama called for the same exact thing when he was a senator and Bush was on his way out. Biden called for the same thing when the first Bush was on his way out.
Apparently they all make themselves look foolish.

The supreme court issue is the least of the R's worry at this point...and I mean very low on the list.

JWP,
Not really, the wheels are falling off the R bus. This latest dust up by the R "leadership" on the handling of the SC is just another in a long list of things that many within the party are growing tired of.
Theatrics and acting like juveniles while ignoring their constituents, all the while failing to do their jobs, is having consequences...just ask Cruz and Rubio.
Even more lame is to point fingers and say, "see, they did it too"...nothing like continuing down an even lower road.
The last thing I would expect is for a politician to take the high road on an issue like this and act like adults.
Even though I have no expectations from the R party, and politicians in general to do the right thing, they still never fail to disappoint.
Sad.
