    "I want you to use my words against me. If there's a Republican president in 2020 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said let's let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination."

    "In the last 80 years, we have not once - has the Senate confirmed the nomination made in an election year and now is not the year to start."

    That’s what does my nut in about this. The republicants let the seat sit empty for a whole year under Obama but now with six weeks to go they cannot wait long enough to “let the people decide”.

    And where are the conservatives speaking out against their own party's hypocrisy? They're nowhere to be found.

    There is plenty of hypocrisy to go around.

    There was no vacant seat when Biden said that. That was merely a hypothetical.

    Even so, Democrats didn't BLOCK a president from choosing a Justice; Republicans did . Biden is just one person; the entire Republican party engaged in stunning hypocrisy.

    No, they wouldn't, because your BS "rule" was stupid on the face of it. You shouldn't have created such a nonsense "rule" in the first place.

    Moscow Mitch created the "I'm going to withhold a vote on Obama's pick for 11 months until a Republican takes office" rule.
