When Hillary President

[gabeana]

since this got locked in the GD,which I don't get, because it is not about a primary issue,
I will just post it here

When Hillary President


do you think she keeps Garland as SC nominee or does she make her own choice

of course the repugs can stop blocking the nomination

[Agnosticsherbet]

1. I think that if she wins, Republicans will approve Garland. He will move the court well left of

Scalia, but he will not be as left as a choice by Hillary Clinton in what I expect will be a Democratic majority in the Senate.

8. Can his nomination be withdrawn by President Obama?

Wouldn't that be sweet -- "Psych! You had your chance!"

[PoliticAverse]

12. Sure it can be withdrawn at anytime. n/t

[Agnosticsherbet]

13. The President could withdraw, or Garland could

Withdraw his name.

2. I think she'll select whoever republicans want her to select.

[Codeine]

9. Stop this.

It's childish and reflects poorly on you.

[notadmblnd]

15. You just hide and watch.

Oh, and the name calling reflects poorly on you too.

14. Madame Defarge

Is a knitter. I like knitting too.

[Purveyor]

3. If it looks like clinton will beat trump in the polls, congress will scurry along

and confirm Garland before she has a chance to nominate her own.

Garland is the best the repubs can hope for...

[Bok_Tukalo]

4. The Republicans, if they hold the Senate, can still block her nominees

The Senate is not required to take action on the Executive's appointments.

And she picks her own. Garland was Obama calling the Republicans' bluff. They weren't bluffing.

[unblock]

5. i think the republicans would approve garland very shortly after hillary wins in november.

garland is the best justice the republicans could hope for from any democratic president.

[boston bean]

6. I do not think so.

[geek tragedy]

10. I have no idea. Garland is a good man and a tremendously

accomplished jurist who deserves so much better treatment than the Republicans have given him.

[LonePirate]

11. If she wins, I think his nomination will be withdrawn.

Of course, the Repubs may try to approve him before the election if they think she is going to win.

It's weird that Republicans think Hillary is to the left of Obama while the Bernie wing of the Democratic Party thinks she is to the right of Obama.

16. Hillary never President. N/T
