They have, but they are still going to delay and drag there feet. Hope against hope they get back the Senate. I doubt we see another NY nom this year.

You are very ambitious. She is very young and JUST got put up for district court. She hasn’t even had a hearing yet. Give her a year or 2 on the DC. My feeling, other two spots get filled with one conservative and one compromise moderate

Ah, got it - yes, you're right. But another thing in Bennett's favor is that after Mike Purpura declined, there weren't really many home-run nominees LEFT in Hawaii; it has a very small legal community.

If he uses the Ikuta model and serves as a break to the unmoored views of some of his colleagues, highlighting cases for SCOTUS to review, I would be satisfied.
