    Republicans had control of the senate when Obama was denied the Supreme Court nomination — Mitch McConnell was the Senate majority leader. So, no, parties weren’t reversed in the Senate, Democrats didn’t have (all) the levers of power at that time.

      Nope. No more excuses for Democrats.

      If the Democrats weren’t so spineless, Garland would be a Supreme Court Justice right now…

      …But then again, maybe it’s for the better. Seeing how often Garland slept on the job while he was Attorney General, Garland’s performance shows he was clearly a poor choice for either Supreme Court Justice or Attorney General in the first place.

      We’re all tired of Democrats being weak, incompetent, and useless for anything other than collecting lobbyist bribes and insider trading info. No more excuses. Do better, Democrats.
