[QUOTE="Hobbes, post: 2847569, member: 3371"] Some things to keep in mind: 1. There's a fairly good chance that the senate could flip to the democrats after the election. (Senate majority leader Schumer) 34 senate seats are up for election. 10 democrats, 24 republicans [IMG]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c2/Competitive_2016_Senate_seats.png/800px-Competitive_2016_Senate_seats.png[/IMG] [COLOR="#3399ff"]Competitive Democratic-held seat[/COLOR] [COLOR="#ff0066"]Competitive Republican-held seat[/COLOR] [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Senate_elections,_2016[/url] Even if someone like Trump or Cruz won, a democratic senate could respond by blocking his nominee the same as Obama's. 2. There's no way to know who the next POTUS is. If Obama was to nominate someone even remotely acceptable it might be best to ahead and take the safe route of confirmation rather than risk an aggressively liberal justice nominated by Hillary or Bernie or Biden and confirmed by a democratic senate.
