Good time hear, but to be picky precedent is bullschit jmho. He's the current president and there's an opening. No other argument is required.
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

...He is still the living embodiment of RINO. Funny you say that. For the longest time, whenever I see the word "RINO", I swear the mental image of Romney appears instantly.

Surprising indeed. I'm guessing that ol' Take-a-Dive Mitt senses his own vulnerability and is taking steps out of self-preservation at playing ball for once. I doubt the folks in Utah would take very kindly at him squandering a golden opportunity to put a conservative on the SC.

My decision regarding a Supreme Court nomination is not the result of a subjective test of ‘fairness’ which, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. It is based on the immutable fairness of following the law, which in this case is the Constitution and precedent. The historical precedent of election year nominations is that the Senate generally does not confirm an opposing party’s nominee but does confirm a nominee of its own.
The Constitution gives the President the power to nominate and the Senate the authority to provide advice and consent on Supreme Court nominees. Accordingly, I intend to follow the Constitution and precedent in considering the President’s nominee. If the nominee reaches the Senate floor, I intend to vote based upon their qualifications. Saying you will vote upon ain't the same as saying you will vote for.
