It takes 60% of the senate to seat a SCOTUS judge. The question is, will the R's block a nutcase leftist? They'll almost have to seat a moderate or a mild leftist, but what if someone like Harris or Hillary, or maybe Michelle, got the nomination? Would the R's block that? I say the R's will fully support anybody PedoBiden nominates after they get to meekly complain about him/her.

Would not be surprised if they nominate cameltoe. It gets her out of the succession for resident of the white house and will keep her from running for any other office in the future. Solves a lot of problems.

I hear that Biteme has said he wants a black woman to fill the spot. I have no idea why being either a black or a woman gives anyone an automatic qualification for the position over anyone else on the planet. I suppose that a knowledge of Constitutional law and a history and tendency to make sound judgements based on such is no longer a requirement or desirable trait. So, who is on the top of Biteme's list? The Ho? Be a good way to get rid of her. Maybe Stacey Abrams, the idiot black lesbian woman from Georgia who claims to have won the last governor election there? How about Chicago mayor Lightfoot? She being black, a lesbian, and with her astounding record as mayor, she would be an excellent Democratic candidate for the position. How about this: How about a candidate chosen not for his or her race, but for their knowledge and respect for our Constitution as written? How about one that has a proven track record of sound legal decisions, within the provisions, protections, and restraints of the Constitution? How about someone fair and competent? What a novel concept!

This is an off ramp for VP Harris . As far as the court goes, not a big change.

People got this wrong with Kavanaugh and Coney. 60 for cloture. Simple majority to confirm.

Got a suggestion for Biden, how about Condoleeza Rice? I could get behind this appointment... but not sure if she has a law degree? Whatever happens you can bet there is going to be a bruiser of a battle pushing the nomination and the confirmation through. Hopefully, the R's will figure out how to stall the nomination process past the midterms and stymie Biden in possibly his most important decision in office- but the R's haven't shown the ability to do that for the most part...

I bet there won't be a battle at all. The R's will roll over as usual.

Wouldn’t it be fun if the republicans did to Bidens nominee what the democrats did to Trumps last two nominees ?
Trot out a professional liar to claim sexual misconduct ?
Several experts to claim he/she/it would put the constitution in jeopardy !
Find someone who went to grade school with it to claim they once flicked a bugger.
Days on end of a continues hearing with wild derogatory claims and no evidence ?
Every time some democrat or reporter challenges the process, just point to the hearings of Kavanaugh and Barrett.

Has Breyer actually announced this , or is it a "leak" from some left side source?
For those who think that Camel-ah would be nominated - where do her legal credentials begin?
