AGAIN?
The nomination of Supreme Court justices come from the Executive branch. The Senate is not in a position to confirm what is not offered.
I do not want a situation where the Executive branch gets proactive in deal making with Senators to get Mr Conservative Candidate confirmed. This has always been the case in Washington and you can expect that if Bush wins, he will be cutting deals and doling out the Pork to get his nominations confirmed even if the Senate moves to a much stronger Democrat position.

He wasnt able to get it done in the last four, why would another term be any different? Its a valid concern but not realistic.
